IAAF RATIFIES WORLD RECORD VAULTS
23 May 2001
MONTE CARLO - Monaco - The IAAF has officially ratified four world
records - all of them in the women's indoor Pole Vault, a fast evolving
event.
Current world leader, Stacy Dragila (USA) established the current world
record of 4.70i in Pocatello, USA, on 17 February 2001, but also cleared
4.66i at the same meeting, another world record.
The previous world record of 4.64i was set by Svetlana Feofanova (RUS)
less than a week earlier (11 February) in Dortmund, Germany. This had
improved the world record of Dragila (4.63i) set in New York on 2
February 2001.
In the Junior Women's indoor event, Yelena Isinbayeva (RUS) cleared
4.47i to set a new record at Budapest on 10 February. Isinbayeva also
set the previous mark of 4.45i in Volgograd, Russia, on 4 February 2000.
