The answer depends on which way the athlete rotates- if he is left handed, then the discus will spin counterclockwise. It will spin this way because the athlete must flick his wrist and spin the disc off his fingers when he releases the disc. If the athlete is right handed, then the disc will rotate clockwise for the same reason.
