The 2024 International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) World Cup in Phuket, Thailand, has been a world record bonanza since it began on March 31, 2024. On April 3, 2024, the record books were opened up for edits again when the Women’s 59KG class took to the platform.





Luo Shifang of China scored the overall gold with a new world record total of 248 kilograms by way of a 108-kilogram snatch and a 140-kilogram clean & jerk. It was a bittersweet triumph for the champion of the last qualifying event before the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. Shifang suffered an elbow injury during her final clean & jerk attempt that secured the total world record.
