GUYANA’S quest for medals at the 2024 South American Men’s Classic Powerlifting
Championships in Buenos Aires, Argentina, will continue today when Kheon Evans and
Naranjan Singh, take to the platform.
Already snaring four bronze medals on Wednesday last through Sarah Sanmoogan who
competed in the Female Junior 69kg category, Evans and Singh will be going all out to add to
this tally.
Like Sanmoogan, Evans is in his second year at this level after they both made their debuts in
Peru, last year. It will not be easy sailing for Evans whose Open Division has twelve (12) other
lifters also vying for the medals on offer.
These athletes are from Peru, Chile, Uruguay, Ecuador, Brazil, Argentina, Columbia, and
Bolivia.
On the other hand, Singh who will be celebrating his 80th birthday in a matter of weeks will be
unchallenged in his category and all things being equal, is set to walk away with four gold
medals in his still ongoing career which started in 2010.
