At least eight, or everyone who clears 4.55.

So I think if Rogowska and Stuczynski and Isinbayeva fail to clear 4.55 that Schwartz might make it in, but I kind of doubt that will happen.

*phew* Stuczynski makes 4.50 on her second. She should make the final with that.

They showed video of Isi at 4.55, plenty of height as one might expect.

Well that all came to a rather sudden end. :dazed:

Code: Select all

                           395 415 425 435 445 450 455
 1 Yelena ISINBAEVA        -   -   -   -   -   -   O
 2 Anna BATTKE             -   -   O   -   O   O   -
 2 Monika PYREK            -   -   -   O   -   O   -
 4 Fabiana MURER           -   -   -   O   O   XO  -
 4 Jennifer STUCZYNSKI     -   -   -   -   -   XO  -
 6 Anna ROGOWSKA           -   -   -   XO  -   XXO -
 7 Svetlana FEOFANOVA      -   -   -   -   O   -   -
 8 Naroa AGIRRE            O   O   XO  O   XXO XXX 
 8 Pavla RYBOVA            -   O   -   XO  XXO XXX 
10 Julia HUTTER            -   -   XO  O   XXX   
11 Jillian SCHWARTZ        -   -   -   XO  XXX   
12 Elisabete TAVARES ANSEL O   O   O   XXX   
13 Nikoleta KIRIAKOPOULOU  -   XO  XXX     
13 Joana COSTA             O   XO  XXX     
   Natalya KUSHCH          -   -   XXX     
   Roslinda SAMSU         

So I guess the don't do a jump-off for that 8th position then?

Do you know anything about this Anna Battke? I don't recall having seen her before.
