Career

[edit]

Arnaudov was born in Bulgaria in 1992. Son of Bulgarian emigrants in Portugal since the age of 12, he acquired Portuguese citizenship on 2 July 2010 (aged 18).[3][4][5][6] Since then he represented Portugal at the 2011 European Junior Championships and the 2013 European U23 Championships in shot put, but was eliminated in the qualifying round both times.[7] In 2014 he broke the Portuguese under-23 record with a throw of 18.80 m.[7]

Arnaudov's results improved rapidly in 2015.[4] He first broke 20 metres in Lisbon on 17 May, and went on to break 21 metres on his next attempt in the same competition; his result of 21.06 m broke Marco Fortes's Portuguese record of 21.02 m from 2012.[6][4] He broke 20 metres again in his next two meets, winning at the European Champion Clubs Cup and placing second to Jakub Szyszkowski at the FBK Games.[7] Arnaudov made his Diamond League debut at the Herculis meeting in Monaco on 17 July, but placed last with a best put of 19.45 m.[8] He won his first Portuguese outdoor championship title the following week, defeating Fortes with 19.79 m in a close competition.[9]

Arnaudov represented Portugal at 2015 World Championships in Beijing.[10] On 10 July 2016, he achieved the bronze medal with 20.59 m at the European Athletics Championships in Amsterdam. It was the first medal ever for Portugal in shot put.[11] In 2017 he broke his own record at the European Athletics Indoor Championships in Belgrade, with a 21.08 throw, which gave him 4th place.[12]
