And she nailed 4,58m!!! Technically, much better jumps than what she did on sunday. Still, it looks like she's on the low side, in terms of penetration. Looks like the standards are at 30-40 something (could be wrong). On one attempt on 4,53m, did she bail, and almost landed in the box.

It's also a swedish record.

No ! Her dad has never vaulted. He was a decent javelin thrower (60 something meter). However she has an older sister that has jumped 4 meter, and also a 11 year old sister that takes her step in competitions (she is following her to the European championship). So I guess we will hear more from the Bengtssons !

(Both the worlds best female and male junior comes from Sweden, 17 year old Melker Svärd-Jacobsson is on top of the boys list with 5.45). And don't forget that the Duplantis kids are half swedes as well!)
