Reigning European silver medallist Lars Börgeling scored a count-back win in the men’s Pole Vault over season leader Tim Lobinger as both cleared 5.70m. Börgeling used a minimalist strategy, opening with a first attempt jumps at 5.50 and 5.70, to remain fresh for his jumps at a would-be PB 5.83. Neither he nor Lobinger - who had competed the day before in Potsdam - were up to the task, however.

Pole Vault: 1. Börgeling 5.70 [5.50 – 5.70 – 5.83/xxx]; 2. Lobinger 5.70 [5.50/2 – 5.60/3 – 5.70/2 – 5.83/xxx]; 3. Otto 5.60; 4. Spiegelburg 5.40; 5. Stolle 5.40; 6. Scherbarth 5.20. No height: Honcl (CZE) and Bechyne (CZE) at 5.00; Schulze at 5.40.
