Lowe prevails over Hellebaut in stormy Madrid – IAAF World Challenge
July 3, 2010
American Chaunte Lowe spoiled the comeback of Belgium’s reigning Olympic High Jump champion Tia Hellebaut with another 2.00m clearance to highlight a stormy ‘Meeting de Atletismo Madrid 2010’ on Friday (2) evening, the 10th meeting of the IAAF World Challenge 2010.
Extremely difficult conditions, which included storms and strong gusting winds, hampered the competition, resulting in delays of more than ninety minutes and the breakdown of the timing equipment.
* Lowe over 2m again, Hellebaut returns with 1.95m
* Business as usual for Mulaudzi while Spain’s leading 1500m guns impress in the 800
* Nazarov defeats world leader Charfreitag in hammer
* Sharman and Hak in top form
