The two-time world champion from Venezuela, Yulimar Rojas, has set a new indoor triple jump world record with a jump of 15.43 metres. Rojas' jump is seven centimetres more than the previous record held by Russian Tatyana Lebedeva since 2004. "I can't believe I'm the world record-holder. I want to get home and cry," she said.
