Part of the superb Chinese field event group for the World Junior
Championships will be 2005 World Youth HJ Champ Gu Biwei
Event Preview -
The home nation's Zheng Xingyuan (China) has jumped 1.92 (6-03.5) both last
year and this, with a 1.88 (6-02) back-up effort this April. She
had four efforts between 1.88 and 1.92 in 2005, with a 1.87 (6-01.5)
2004 best, with the Beijing setting obviously a great one for the local
star! Annett
Engel (Germany) was fourth in the 204 World Junior Championship Meet
at 1.87 (6-01.5), with a 1.91 (6-03.25) indoors this winter and 1.89
(6-02.25)
back-up
in 2006. Gu Biwei (China) was the 2005 World Youth Champ with a 1.90
(6-02.75) best from 2005, and 1.89 (6-02.25) effort this spring. Sophia
Begg (Australia) was runner-up in the 2005 World Youth Meet with a 1.88
(6-02) best and four 1.86 (6-01.25) or better meets during the 2005 season. Svetlana
Radzivil (Uzbekistan) has jumped 1.90 (6-02.75) indoors this winter
(and 1.89 6-02.25 back-up), with 1 .85 (6-00.75) 2005 and 1.88 (6-02)
2004 bests.
A flock of others have bests of
1.87 (6-01.5) or better to make this a fine, deep contest. Viktoria
Leks (Estonia) was 1.90 (6-02.75) this winter (and 1.87 (6-01.5 in
2005), with Alesia Herasimava (Bulgaria) 1.88 (6-02) indoors in 2006
(and 1.87 (6-01.5) in 2005), and 1.87 (6-01.5) jumpers Nataliya Hapchuk
(Ukraine), Juliana Urban (Germany), and Yekaterina Yevseyeva (Kazakhstan
- third World 2005 Youth Championships) strong candidates for spots
among the top half dozen.
It is a shame that American Deastinee
Hooker passed on the affair, with the 1.92 (6-03.5) indoor star
the US National Collegiate Champ along the way this spring with a
number of very fine competitive efforts.
