Chris Morgan, the current World Drug Free Powerlifting Championship Silver medalist, has won his first British title.
Last weekend he cruised into first place in the British Championship Final.
His final deadlift of 242.5 kilos, was enough to to secure the title and for him to qualify for this year's European and World Championships.
'It was a complete surprise to find myself competing for the British title, especially after all my injury problems earlier this year My aim going into the British Final was solely to qualify for the European and World Championships,' Morgan said.
The European Drug Free Powerlifting Championships will be held June 18-19 at Grangemouth Sports Centre, Scotland. The World Drug Free Championship Final will be held in Turin, Italy in early December.
