The Memorial Van Damme is a fine meet. The crowd is enthusiastic, the events are well planned and the weather, most years, is nearly perfect. That was not so in 2017, as the power outage in the same part of Brussels as the stadium was located meant that emergency generators were needed. There were no results, no lighting, power or wifi in media room, making media coverage pretty difficult. On top of that, the crowd was treated to some fine, end of season performances and the new format was a huge success.

That look of determination in my eyes has been the definition of this season. So close to many things that I wanted, but happy to end my season feeling so good. Easily over 4.75m again, and I guess it’s a good thing I’m bored of heights like these! I’m so honored and blessed to be where I am. Now to go home and rest, then turn around and prepare for next season! @DiamondLeagueAthletics #DiamondLeague #DLFinal #BrusselsDL #Nike #Nikewomen #determined #nikeTF #polevault #jumpnation #tracknation #teamUSA #USA #bringit !!! 😝
