PUMA athlete Wilma Murto broke the Finnish record three times on her way to a shock victory in the women’s pole vault competition yesterday at the European Championships.
Six years after setting the world junior record, the 24-year-old who had arrived in Munich with a season’s best of 4.60m in finishing sixth at the World Championships remarkably went over 4.75m and 4.80m at the first time of asking before equalling the championships record with a second-time clearance of 4.85m. WOW! 🤩
