As for pole vaulter Vanessa Boslak, she progressively reduces the gap that separates her from the best athletes in the world. On Saturday, she needed only three jumps (4.10m, 4.30m and 4.50m) to break the previous national record of 4.46m that she held jointly with Marie Poissonnier. 


The male pole vaulters were left unsatisfied after hurling winds prevented them from reaching high heights. Romain Mesnil logically won with 5.60m ahead of Belgium’s Thibaud Duval, his little-known team-mate Alexandre Barbaud (5.75m this season) and Alain Andji who cleared 5.50m.
