new record
Best performance yet
A new record is a measurement or achievement that surpasses all previous ones: She set a new record in the 100-meter dash.
Records can be broken in athletics, weather, sales, or any domain where performance is tracked.
The phrase often appears in sports and business contexts, though it applies anywhere bests are measured: Stock prices hit a new record today.
