World Athletics updated the world rankings in the women's high jump, based on which Yaroslava Mahuchikh ceded the lead to Australian Nicola Olyslagers. Despite the European Championship "gold" and a victory at the 13 Diamond League stage, the 24-year-old athlete from Dnipro is in second place, trailing the top spot by only five points.
In the updated list Olyslagers leads the rankings with 1378 points. Mahuchikh has 1375 points, which keeps her in second place.
Third place is held by another Ukrainian, Yuliya Levchenko, who has accumulated 1334 points. Thus, two Ukrainian athletes are immediately among the world's top three high jumpers.
