She achieved this standard in her PB-setting heptathlon where she also jumped 1.95m in high jump and was only 2 points shy of the Olympic in heptathlon.

 

Men's High Jump

:USA JuVaughn Harrison- 2.36m

He has also jumped 8.45m in long jump earlier this season.

 

His jumping series in this competition was truly impressive:

JuVaughn Harrison very impressive. I can't remember anyone with such results both in HJ and LJ one season in men's athletics. What a combo!

 

If he qualifies in both events, scheduling is not easy but possible. First four days of athletics would be busy. HJ Q on Friday. LJ Q on Saturday. HJ Final on Sunday evening session. And LJ final on Monday morning. What a story that would be with two medals!
