Renaud looks stone cold. I think we could see the bar move to the 6 meter mark in the near future.

Wojciechowski passing his remaining two attempts, makes sense since he was clean up until this point.

Boy what a great competition, really making up for this rather lackluster year.

Mohr just knocked himself out of the medals.

Mohr has a decent attempt, just goes off to the right and is a bit of a blow through. He looks like he could make it with a slightly bigger pole.

If UCS pay 7 days for me and my family in some Cuban all-inclusive resort, I will do that. :)

Miss for Didenkow and he's out, but the IAAF website indicates 5.75 was a PR, so nice work.
