they say he was exhausted recently at Liévin (he cleared 5,52 m)
Short translation
"I came here wanting to do something good. This performance is rewarding. I knew I was able to clear 5,80 m, but I soon realized I could better it. I noticed on my first jump that I was easy. I had in my mind the world lead, but as the run-up was shortened by two steps, I was unsure how I would adapt. I am pleasedwith my jumps.
I tried new poles for the first time. Such a result in a world or olympic final would be good."
