須藤美貴さん、１１度目の優勝　ホットドッグ早食い大会―ＮＹ

　【ニューヨーク時事】米独立記念日の４日、恒例のホットドッグ早食い大会がニューヨークのコニーアイランドで開かれ、南部フロリダ州在住の須藤美貴さん（３９）が女性部門で１１度目の優勝を果たした。１０分間で３３個のホットドッグを平らげ、２位の２２個と４分の３を圧倒した。昨年に自らが打ち立てた女性の世界記録（５１個）は更新できなかった。
　強い日差しの中、会場には大勢の観客が詰めかけた。須藤さんは大会後、「やや練習不足だったかもしれない」と振り返り、「テクニックを磨いて、来年はもっと食べたい」と意気込みを語った。
　男性部門では、昨年の大会には出場しなかったジョーイ・チェスナットさん（４１）が復帰。他の参加者を大きくリードし、１０分間で７０個半食べて２年ぶり１７回目の優勝を手にした。（2025/07/05-07:12）

Miki Sudo won the women's title at the Nathan's Famous annual hot dog eating contest in New York on Friday, her 11th victory.
   At the event held in Coney Island on Independence Day, the 39-year-old competitive eater from Florida downed 33 hot dogs in 10 minutes, overwhelming the second-place finisher who ate 22 and three-quarters. She could not break her own world record of 51 set last year.
   The venue was packed with spectators in the strong sunlight. After the competition, she reflected on her performance and said she might have been out of practice. She then expressed her enthusiasm by saying that she will hone her techniques and eat more at next year's contest.
   In the men's division, Joey Chestnut, 41, won his 17th title by scarfing down 70 and a half hot dogs in 10 minutes, leaving the other participants far behind. This was his first win in two years after skipping last year's event.
