Brad Walker went some way to make up for his disappointment of not making the final of the pole vault in Beijing by defeating the Olympic bronze medallist Denys Yurchenko (UKR) in 5.72m.

“The conditions weren’t brilliant,” said Walker, “but we managed to get the competition done before the rain came. “I had a tough Olympics, so I came here to get the win as I really need to get some confidence back.”
