Efremov's been a consistent 5.65-5.70 vaulter past few years and he looked horrible on his 3rd at 5.15. I wonder if he's coming off an injury.

Starodubtsev starts out with a miss.

Maybe the US men will fare better against the Russians than our women did ;)

Borges misses.

I see he's 38. That explains it.

IAAF: 20:53
The pole vault qualifying has begun at the north end of the stadium. It will be 5.75m for the automatic qualifying height, or the 12 best clearances, and the bars are at 5.30m now.
