American Moon wins third straight world pole vault gold
American Katie Moon won a third consecutive women's pole vault world title in Tokyo on Wednesday.
Moon, also the Olympic champion in Tokyo in 2021, cleared 4.90m for gold, with US teammate Sandi Morris taking silver with a best of 4.85m.
It was a fourth world outdoor silver medal for Morris, a two-time world indoor champion.
Slovenia's Tina Sutej claimed bronze with 4.80m.
Reigning Olympic champion Nina Kennedy of Australia did not travel to Japan, having pulled out with a strained leg muscle following hamstring surgery.
