OG WPV Finals - JENN SUHR WINS GOLD!!!!

[rainbowgirl28]

Bleasdale up for her third attempt at 4.45m. She aborts her run early on... still has 30 seconds left. Julien says GO!

She clears!!!!

[VaultMarq26]

lots of girls stopping half way through the run....the wind must be getting worse

[rainbowgirl28]

Bleasdale the third girl over the bar.

Becky Holliday up now. Just like Bleasdale, aborts early in the run. Grabs a little more chalk...

She clears too!!!! She and EB both look thrilled!

[rainbowgirl28]

Becky has surpassed expectations every step of the way. EB says that was about as good as the wind is going to get. Tells her to move in a bit.

Ptacnikova also sneaks over the bar on her third attempt at 4.45m!

Notice the only thing EB tells Holliday is about the run? It's. All. About. The. Run.

IAAF (before these clearances): Of the 30 attempts taken so far in the pole vault, just seven have been clearances. And these are the opening heights!

[fishman4god]

Rock and roll!

[rainbowgirl28]

Boslak out with an ugly bail. She finishes with 4.30.

I see Ryzih in the background with a full-length parka on. She had HUGE height on the last two attempts, let's see if she can turn that into a clearance...

[master]

Isi is putting on her shoes!

[rainbowgirl28]

Yes! A huge clearance for Ryzih!
