I think the pole vault is cursed. The wind is kind of swirling around now, as of right now they have a crosswind.

I assume they will give them some timeto warm up, so no PV updates for a bit.

No warmups for the guys. It looks like they are letting Buller take his jump over.

Buller comes down on the bar and misses.

Mack runs through.

The board showed that as second miss for Stevenson. Maybe he had a time foul before? I don't remember seeing him jump, but I could have missed it.

One guy was ahead but stumbled.

There wa a big long jump but I could not hear what they said. Broke some records.
