Lisek defeats record winner Filippidis in Schlanders

The rain thwarted the plans of the organizers of the 17th pole vault meeting on the Kulturhausplatz in Silandro on Friday evening. The start planned for 20.30 p.m. had to be postponed again and again due to heavy rain. It wasn't until 22.40:XNUMX p.m. that the time had finally come. Despite the less than ideal conditions, the jumpers were able to fully motivate themselves and gave their best.

It wasn't until after midnight that the winner was decided: this year his name is Piotr Lisek and he comes from Poland. He jumped a height of 5,81 meters. At this height he also decided to end the competition due to the late hour.

Lisek clearly won ahead of the Greek record winner in Schlanders, Konstandinos Filippidis (5,55m) and the Argentinian German Chiaraviglio (5.40m). The Germans Malte Mohr (5,40m) and Jakob Köhler-Baumann (5,20m) took 4th and 5th place, ahead of the Italian Matteo Capello (5,20m). The 36-year-old Manfred Menz from Merano, who starts for the Bolzano club Athletic Club 96, had no valid attempt.
