Spiegelburg missed.


Jenn Stuczynski makes on her first! Not a great jump but an easy clearance.

4.00 seems like kind of a low opening height though, glad they are going 15cm the next two heights after that.

Looks like 4.40 with no misses might make finals.

There's 10 girls that have either made 4.40 with no misses, or have passed (Isi and Jenski).

There's 4 that made 4.40 on their 2nd. Only Dennison made it on her 3rd, so she'll have to clear 4.50 to get to the final.

Feofanova over 4.50 with a foot to spare on an effortless jump. She may be back in shape to contend.

Pyrek misses, lots of height but comes down on the bar.

Rogowska clears.
