4.65 was a season best for Ptacnikova and just under her lifetime best of 4.66.

Rogowska goes out! That's a bit of a surprise, though certainly her training was compromised when she broke a pole and busted up her hand about a month ago.

Spiegelburg goes out as well. Maybe she ran out of gas, she's had a lot of jumps tonight.

Hey video! Strutz! Makes it easily.

Suhr barely cleared the bar, she's really going to have to step it up to make higher heights, but we know she can do it.

Now Ptacnikova's third attempt, decent, but doesn't quite have the height. LOL @ the British announcers, so over the top.

Rogowska looked a bit sloppy on that last jump.

Spiegelburg looked off as well, went a bit to the right.

Kiriakopoulou had a nice jump but blew through her pole. She gave the crowd a nice wave :) Her coach was very animated haha.

Feofanova clears 4.75 to retake the lead!

Suhr misses. I think jumping at this height was smart, she really needs to iron out her technique.

Strutz misses as well.

Murer clear! She moves into a tie for the lead.

Suhr is well down on misses now, I wouldn't be surprised if she passed her remaining two attempts to the next height.
