Paris | Silver medallist Nicola Olyslagers reckons the women’s high jump produced the “perfect podium” in Paris after she and Eleanor Patterson became the first two Australians to win a medal in the same Olympic track and field event in 56 years.
New world record holder Yaroslava Mahuchikh was a deserving gold medallist, but Olyslagers pushed the great Ukrainian all the way on Sunday night (Monday AEST) with a clutch final clearance at 2 metres.
