In a final which saw nine Olympic records, Isinbayeva dramatically cleared 4.80m on her first and last try to grab the gold medal position after being on the verge of elimination after first time failures at 4.70m and 4.75m. She then soared over 4.85m and then the World record 4.91m at the first try.
