    Baumgart Witan - 50.2
    Holub-Kowalik - 50.4
    Swiety-Ersetic - 51.4

    Was Justyna shutting it down, or does she miss out to Kaczmarek in the final? Hard to drop any of the first 3 legs.

    Femke Bol (49.1) the fastest split.

      I feel like swiety wasn't great in the XR?

      She wasn't - has been injured and has focused on the relays. She may well struggle as she gets more runs in her legs...

      Not a great PV final with only 4 of the 15 clearing 4.70.

        So that’s guaranteed top 4 for Holly and currently 2nd. No medal would be a big disappointment now.

          Why would you say that and invoke the curse?

          Crap I really should have kept my mouth shut.

          EDIT. I didn’t realise Stefanidi was a 2nd time clearance. Phew!

        Holly and Stefanidi both miss, Sidarova over.
        - she looks sublime

        ETA Nageotte over first time, so Holly down to 3rd.

          Sidorova showing how it's done. She was always a shoo-in for one of the 10 ANA places for good reason.

            Nageotte over - comfortably.

            Stefanidi slithers over 2nd time.

            Holly needs this 2nd time to get back in the medals.

              Nageotte looks incredibly fast so I wonder whether the fast track took her a bit to get used to

                    Whatever happens here, Holly has shown she is a new athlete this year. That took huge guts. Come on girl!

                      She's still 2nd on number of failures.

                        I think, at least? Or is it only if they clear at the same height next?

                        Will be useful if she matches Nageotte at their highest height.
