In Ostrava, Czech Republic, at the "gold" series stage of the Continental Tour, Dmytro Nikitin won the high jump, clearing the bar at 2 meters 24 centimeters on his first attempt.

The host of the competition, Jan Štefela, was able to overcome this barrier, but did so on his third attempt

At the same time, the bar at a height of 2 meters 28 centimeters was not conquered by any of the athletes.

"So, thanks to fewer attempts at the previous height, the Ukrainian became the winner of the stage!" – emphasized in the message.

The next important competition for Nikitin will be the European Team Championship-2025, where he will replace Oleg Doroshchuk in the national team. The tournament will be held in Madrid from June 27 to 29.

At another Czech stage – in Brno, which belongs to the "silver" series of the Continental Tour, Yulia Levchenko distinguished herself. She showed a result of 1 meter 98 centimeters, which became the best for her in the last two years.

Thanks to this, she not only won a silver medal in the high jump sector, but also fulfilled the qualifying standard for the 2025 World Championship!

Levchenko competed for the victory with Australian Nicola Olyslagers.
