The amazing dominance of Russia’s team became obvious in the heat of Southern Spain when Svetlana Feofanova produced no result in the Pole Vault. Even that had no effect on the overall scoring. Russia stayed in the lead.
Pyrek - 4.75m world lead
Two jumping events were among the highlights of day one in Malaga.
The women’s Pole Vault became a high class affair although the 2003 World champion Svetlana Feofanova had no valid attempt at her first height of 4.40m. But it was another one who unexpectedly put pressure on Monika Pyrek (Poland). Vanessa Boslak (France) jumped 4.70m on her second attempt, with which she improved her personal best by ten centimetres and set a French record. Pyrek only cleared that mark on her third attempt. But she went on to jump 4.75m on her second attempt to finally win the competition with a new world season lead.
“It was hot and windy – but I used a good moment when there was less wind and jumped 4.75m,â€Â
