Clearances for Borges, Mohr and Filipidis at 5.50. Staying clean could be crucial for a medal.

Where are you getting live results from? The IAAF site is down for maintenance again.

A make for Miles! Great start for both of the Americans.

Misses for Bychkov and da Silva.


The IAAF site went down for a second for me but now it's working again.

Make for Michalski and miss for Starodubstev.

Now we go to second attempts at 5.50 and Didenkow clears.

Mesnil failed first attempt at 5.65, he was under, even for a french technique.

Anyone else on the west coast awake?

Bychkov misses his second attempt, Starodubstev makes it.

Then Bychkov misses his third attempt and he's out. The bar goes up to 5.65. Lewis and Mesnil begin things with a miss apiece.

We'll lose at least a 3rd of the field here.

I'm jealous you get to see so many jumps on TV! Most of us probably won't see very many.


A miss for Didenkow at 5.65
