How bad this wind must be to do this to almost all of the women...
Fight the good fight: It's nice to be great but it's far greater to be nice.

polevaultpower: Ptacnikova runs through as well. Some confusion with Ryzih and the officials. Maybe the clock not set right? She puts her parka back on.

Now she is ready. Letting the clock run down. Wind sucks. Run through.

Holly went down a pole and it was still too much in this wind.

Isi must be passing her next two attempts because now Holly Bleasdale is up for her third attempt.

Real toughness necessary here. Julien still telling her to wait. She takes it up but it's not good enough! Holly comes down on the bar and knocks it off, her dreams of a London Olympic medal are over :crying:

Smart of Isi to pass... the wind is horrid and she is down on misses. Might as well wait and see if it improves.

Becky Holliday takes up her third attempt but it is not enough either, miss. She finishes with 4.45m.
