Everyone over at 5.40 except Hooker NH and Lavillenie passes.

[rainbowgirl28]

I wonder where Malte Mohr is? He is ranked second in the Diamond League rankings, I wouldn't think he would miss this. Time to dig around the German website...

[rainbowgirl28]

Oh I see that none of the German guys are entered, and it looks like they have a meet in Germany (German champs?) tomorrow/Sunday.

[rainbowgirl28]

At 5.60, Balner and Lavillenie are the only ones over on their first attempt, everyone else misses.

[rainbowgirl28]

Second attempts at 5.60: Czerwinski, Miles, and Michalski clear. Everyone else misses.

Lavillenie the only one to clear 5.70 on his first attempt.
