I hurt myself, I threatened! He claimed a new world record – 2024-11-01 20:56:00

The number one athlete of the year announced new ambitions in the high jump.

“I think I still have room to improve. I can jump up to 2.15,” said the new world record holder in the high jump, Jaroslava Maguchich.

The Ukrainian, the No. 1 athlete in 2024, in July broke Stefka Kostadinova’s long-standing world record when she jumped 210 centimeters, one more.


“I want to prove my qualities, everything is possible. When I didn’t manage to jump 1.95 on the first attempt, which happens to me for the first time this season, I said to myself: I came to set a new personal record, and I can’t even jump 1 .95 But then I told myself I’d still have a fantastic night.

From the second attempt, I jumped 2.07, which is a personal record and a record for Ukraine. I was very happy and my coach asked me if we were going to stop there, but I told her that I would make one attempt for the record.

Even before the attempt I was very happy. I was thinking about what the celebrations would be like in Ukraine if I succeed,” added Maguchich.

The season for the Ukrainian is magnificent, as in addition to the record, she also achieved an Olympic title in Paris. For this purpose, she needed a much weaker result – 2 meters.
