Brazilian javelin thrower

Sueli Pereira dos Santos (born January 8, 1965, in Cascavel, Paraná) is a retired female javelin thrower from Brazil. At the age of 35, she set her personal best (61.98 metres) on May 6, 2000, in Bogotá. That mark was a Masters W35 World Record that lasted about a month until it was surpassed by Russian Olympian Yekaterina Ivakina, who would improve the record four more times in the next two months.
