what on earth just happened in the pole vault? looked like perfectly good vault to me.
The bar moved off the support and landed on part of the mechinism holding the support in place, so it counts as a failure. Luckily it did not affect the result.

oh, I see. Thanks. Never seen that before. Or someone look so p*ssed off having just won gold.
Stupid system where something as obvious as that can result in a DQ even for a few minutes. It must have really spoilt the moment a bit for the GB guys. Still justice done in the end.
Pretty decent championships from a GB perspective, a few disappointments, but some good young talent coming through. On the whole our squad is looking stronger this year than last.

Yeah, it was crazy they were ever DQ'ed there...all they had to do was glance at the footage once!

Gold and Championship Record.
Have been DQ'ed but am sure they'll appeal. The Russian who was DQ'ed in the 400m individual later got reinstated for similar.
The 4 girls did really well - been a brilliant day for Perri Shakes!
