Voronin is Jumping Again and Winning Again

High jump record-holder (2,40 and 2,37 indoors) Vyacheslav Voronin started to compete again this year after a long break caused by injury followed by surgery. Today he was participating in Moscow Championship (10-11.02.2003). He failed his first two attempts to conquer 2,19, but world champion of 1999 didn’t give up and on his third attempt he managed to leave the bar rest on the bar holders. Then inspired by his own success he easily took 2,22 and became the winner of the Championship.
