Commonwealth Games 2022 silver medallist triple jumper Abdulla Aboobacker Narangolintevida clinched the gold medal clocking a season-best score of 16.31m in the Mikio Oda Memorial Athletics meet in Hiroshima, Japan.
The 27-year-old Keralite clocked his season-best score twice in the fifth and sixth attempts and notched up a good performance in the maiden foreign meet of the season.
Abdulla crossed the 16m mark five times in seven attempts overall in the Mikio Oda Memorial.
Earlier this year, he claimed the third spot in two domestic meets by clocking 15.93m and 15.77m (Indian Open Jumps and Indian Grand Prix).
The Mikio Oda Memorial Athletics meet is an annual event held in Japan in honour of the legendary Japanese track and field athlete who won the triple jump gold medal at the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics.
The event, which was first held in 1986, is organised by the Japan Association of Athletics Federations (JAAF). It is a World Athletics bronze level meet.
