Masters Two World deadlift record-holder Winston Stoby feels that he can smash more records at the upcoming Masters World Championships.

Stoby,53, will attend the World Masters Championships along with 2011 World Masters bronze medalist John ‘Big John’ Edwards in Texas, USA in October.

In a recent interview with Stabroek Sport, Stoby expressed confidence of setting more records for Guyana.

“Once I can get the support and I am comfortable and my mind is settled I will execute and get those records,” he promised.

Last Sunday, Stoby set a new deadlift record (267kgs/589 pounds)
