Already during the Swedish Championship, Angelica Bengtsson tried to set a new Swedish record of 4.84 with a new pole. Then, as now, she did not reach the height and in the last attempt she even had to interrupt because the rod did not lower well.
– I am very disappointed, says Angelica Bengtsson to SVT Sport and continues:
– It is with this pole that I was not friends with in the Swedish Championship. I thought it would be today, but then the wind came in the last three steps so I didn’t have time to interrupt the approach. I had five minutes on me so I could have easily stopped like I did at 4.62, but I didn’t have time. I burned my hands on the way and got mad.
Notably disappointed
This rod is the stiffest you have and should make you take higher heights. After the competition, she was notably disappointed when SVT Sport spoke to her.
– Last winter it worked, but then I got stuck on pole. It is this pole that makes me jump 4.90 and I want to give myself that opportunity. I am getting upset.
The competition was Angelica Bengtsson’s last of the season.
– This whole season has been an emotional roller coaster with a crown and stuff. There are many mental processes that I have gone through. But with Lausanne (Diamond League) I had a lot of energy and I gained hope. Then when the competition floated so well today, I thought it would all come. Of course I’m a bit disappointed, but mostly I didn’t try in the end, she says.
