The women's high jump at the 2019 World Athletics Championships was held at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha, Qatar, from 27 to 30 September 2019.[1]
Summary[]
As might have been predictable, the six members of the female two metres club were the last six left in the competition at 2 metres. The newest member Karyna Demidik saved one attempt, but missed. First over was defending champion Mariya Lasitskene, who still had a clean round going. That was matched by Vashti Cunningham also maintaining a clean round. After two misses, returning silver medalist Yuliya Levchenko made it over. Returning bronze medalist Kamila Lićwinko was not so lucky and exited the competition. Next up, 17-year old, newly tied U20 record holder Yaroslava Mahuchikh got over.
At 2.02m, Lasitskene continued her perfect series. Cunningham missed, and then Mahuchikh got over to set a new U20 record. Neither Levchenko or Cunningham could get over, leaving Cunningham with the bronze. At 2.04m, Lasitskene still remained perfect. After two misses, Mahuchikh got over again, setting a second new U20 record in the same competition; a 4 cm personal improvement. That was it, as Lasitskene had the advantage. Mahuchikh, with silver in her pocket, chose not to continue for a third personal best. Lasitskene took three failed attempts at 2.08m.
