Armenia’s women’s weightlifting team member, World former champion, Nazik Avdalyan is not happy with her performance at the World Championship.

“Naturally, I’m not happy as I compare this result with the previous ones. True, I hadn’t competed for 6 years but I expected more. I felt well physically and my back injury didn’t bother me. Though I had other injuries but they were anaesthetized. No matter how many painful injuries you have you should forget them at the necessary moment. I still have the European Championship and I'll try to do my best in it. Of course, the Olympics are paramount for me'', Nazik Avdalyan said.

At the World Championship being held in Houston, USA Nazik Avdalyan (69kg) came out in Group B. In the snatch she lifted 105 kg and in the clean and jerk 125 kg. By the double-event of 230 kg Avdalyan placed 4th in Group B.
