Lavillenie veers to the right a bit, but he has a nice big clearance to move into a tie for first.

Michalski with a miss, not even close.

So that moves us to second attempts. IAAF site back up for me, looks like Miles and everyone else missed.

Three athletes over the bar so far, Wojciechowski, Mohr, and Lavillenie.

That looks like Gio and Ashton in the stands :)

Bail for Lewis, his second attempt. Looks like he has switched to Spirit poles? Maybe he did that when he switched coaches.
