Men's Pole Vault 18:36 Igor Pavlov of Russia won 2004 World indoor gold and 2005 European indoor gold. He will be dangerous...
Men's Pole Vault 18:35 So to the Pole Vault. Lars Borgeling of Germany won silver in the 2002 European Championships, and came 3rd in the Euro Cup in 2003 and 2004.

Men's Pole Vault 18:50 Pavlov with his third attempt at 5.25...he's fouled twice so far...he makes it! He takes the joint lead.

Men's Pole Vault 18:48 So far in the Pole, Mesnil (FRA) and Gazol (SPA) have jumped 5.25, while Lewis of GBR is third with 5.15.

Men's Pole Vault 18:51 Yurchenko of Ukraine fails with his first jump at 5.35...he hadn't made another jump before that.

Men's Pole Vault 18:53 Ginger home athlete Gazol up next to try 5.35...he almost makes it but cannot lever his whole body beyond the bar.

Men's Pole Vault 19:10 The standings so far in the Pole Vault... 1 Gibilisco ITA 5.45 2 Pavlov RUS 5.45 3 Yurchenko UKR 5.35 3 Czerwinski POL 5.35 3 Lewis GBR 5.35 3 Latvala FIN 5.35 7 Gazol ESP 5.35 8 Mesnil FRA 5.25

Nothing terribly exciting yet. Gibilisco opens at 5.45 and makes it on his first. Latvala of Finland clears 5.45 on his first for a season best. Pavlov makes it on his first and Mesnil on his second. Several have passed, Borgeling has not come in yet.

Men's Pole Vault 19:23 Back with the Pole Vault, Gibilisco, Latvala, Pavlov and Mesnil all lead on 5.45...

[rainbowgirl28]

Nobody over 5.55 yet. Gibilisco has passed. Borgeling is opening at this and has missed his first two attempts...

[rainbowgirl28]

Still no one over... Borgeling NHs and Yurchenko is out.

I wonder if the wind took a turn for the worse?

[rainbowgirl28]

Czerwinski and Pavlov out.

One promising vault competition sure got ugly fast

Mesnil passed also. I think one more vaulter had one more attempt at 5.55, then the bar would go up for Gibilisco and Mesnil. Gibilisco is up on misses.
