Oh back to real time, Isi is out!! No medal for her, she'll finish in 6th!!

So who would have thought Jenn would beat Isi but both would fail to medal.

The curse of the cover continues!!

Murer clears on her second attempt! She moves into silver.

Feofanova goes out. She has bronze unless Silva pulls out a miracle.

Third miss for Feo too... and Russia's attention switches to the track.

Bar goes up to 4.85. Now it's time for a battle between Strutz and Murer.

Feofanova had a season best to get the bronze. I bet it will feel a little better to get that medal knowing she beat Suhr and Isi.

4.85 equals Murer's best and is a huge season PR.

Strutz passes to 4.90. Forget another NR, she wants a gold medal.


They just showed Strutz's 4.80 jump. It was nice! A clean jump. She'll really have to dig deep to make 4.90. She was a former gymnast, really?

Now they show Isi, looks like she moved up poles... and she bailed!
