Russian media is suggesting that Yelena Isinbayeva will get a buy to the World Champs. Jenn Suhr, the AR at 4.88m or 16 feet even, and highest jumper in 2012, is considering Istanbul, but first, she must finish in top ten in Albququerque next weekend! Suhr is trying to be careful not to overuse her achilles, which has been an issue most of her career.

ISINBAEVA WILL GET A BYE
MOSCOW
(RUS): Russian media are informing that pole vault queen Yelena
Isinbaeva will get a bye and must not compete at Russian Indoor
Championships in order to qualify for Istanbul. That means only one

February 23 during the national event are not only Isinabaeva but also
high jump world champion Anna Chicherova and long jump world medalist
