Australia’s high jump stars Eleanor Patterson and Nicola Olyslagers have finished in the podium placings as their Olympic Games conqueror Yaroslava Mahuchikh again proved too strong in their Lausanne rematch.
Three weeks after consigning the duo to silver and bronze in the Paris Games – the first time Australia had two medallists in the same field event – world record holder Mahuchikh cleared 1.99m at the Diamond League meeting in Switzerland on Thursday to underline her dominance.
