Damian Warner’s Olympic medal hopes end with no height in pole vault

By Sportsnet Staff

One of Canada’s best bets for Olympic gold is out of medal contention after a stunning result.

Decathlete Damian Warner didn’t record a height in the pole vault, faulting on all three attempts at 4.60 metres in the eighth event of the competition. The Canadian was second in the overall standings entering the event.

Warner won Olympic gold in Tokyo three years ago and bronze in 2016 in Rio de Janeiro.
