BIRMINGHAM (GBR): New Zealand´s pole vault Olympic medalist Eliza McCartney has confirmed there are no broken bones and she’s planning on seeing the season out, after she was forced to retire from the Diamond League event in Birmingham with an injured heel. McCartney was on just her second jump of the day, trying again to clear 4.20m, when the mishap happened. Her coach, Jeremy McColl, said she stalled in the jump and had her feet get tangled, then came down on the track by the box, jamming her heel on impact. A few hours later she took to Instagram to confirm the injury was some heavy soft tissue bruising. Informs NZ media.
