ALEXANDER STADIUM, JUNE 5
Mutaz Essa Barshim: cleared a world lead of 2.37m
MUTAZ ESSA BARSHIM returned after his seventh-place high jump finish in Doha and his sixth in Rome to clear a world-leading 2.37m before attempting unsuccessfully a would-be PB and Asian record of 2.44m. The record wasn’t to be this time but the 2014 world indoor champ was pleased with his performance.
