Last year in Zurich, Ivana jumped 6.80, but in the overall standings failed to win diamonds. She tied with Tijana Bartoletti, but was better than Belorussian Mirončik, today's contester.
She won the gold at the European Championships, but this is golden Ivana’s greatest wish!
In the qualifications, the Serbian ahtlete jumped 6.91 meters, three centimeters greater than her record and Serbia's record in the open. Before the final, she said:
- I am eagerly awaiting the competition. It will be uniform. Many of us jumped more than 6.90 this season. My head will pass judgment. Personally, neither physically or mentally was I ever more ready - Ivana said a day before the final.
Of course, the World Cup final in the long jump, you can follow live on Telegraf sport...
