What a Final ! Mariya Lasitskene was down in 9th place after two failures at 1.96 and on the brink of elimination. You could feel the tension as she was walking up and down preparing for her third attempt and then.........Stop !......she has to wait for a National anthem to be played. More time for her to zone in on this final attempt. This competition was about who wanted it the most. Mariya clears 1.96 and survives elimination. She clears 1.98 and goes into third place before moving into second equal with a 2 metre clearance. I just loved that scream of delight as she took the lead for the first time with 2.02 and then sealed victory with 2.04. Even more moving were the tears at the end. What an athlete ! What a Champion ! It was the very last event to finish in the stadium. What a finale ! I love you Mariya.

The win is very vindicating for Mariya. She has consistently been the world's best high jumper (male or female) in the last 6 years. The Olympic gold instantly makes her not only the best ever in the event, but an all-time legend in all of sports. Russia is forever proud of her. ;-)

Meanwhile Lasitskene was calm and quiet the whole meet and it was like they forget about her every time until she jumped, and then it's be like "Oh, yeah, there's the three-time Olympic Champion. Minimal talk about her technique, history, personality. Nothing until the win. Kind of annoyed me. What a champion. What an awesome performances by the top women, too.

[@Esclarecidos]

A must see for everybody! Mariya's impressive resilience, and australian Nicola's impressive determination. Yaroslava has many Olympics ahead of her, and her turn will come for sure, but not without a fight. The High Jump mode shows that the competition is not against others, but an individual battle. A battle to overcome its own limits, and repeat the results. It's not enough to do it once, it's necessary to have consistency. So in sport, so in life.

I watched it on Eurosport, the noise was pretty low and you could clearly hear her grunt after she failed.

HOW did she do it? Last attempt at 1.96, and she does it. She had been folding at 1.95+, all year long leading up to the Olympics. You could literally see the writing on the wall, just as that announcer dude was saying - the BEST high jumper to not win an Olympic gold. It's rare when you find a 'magical' athlete, like this. That look on her face of hope and fear. NO one like her. THE best moment in the Olympics, if you are a big fan of 'the Shadow Chick,' aka Mariya Lasitskene. Also. Never seen her emotional before. The Olympic Committee screwed the Russian Track n Field team at the Rio Games, when she was unbeatable. Must be this HUGE weight off her shoulders. I'm hoping Putin gave her something better, when the athletes went to meet with him. She deserved it. And yet, NObody, who had seen her compete this year, thought she was even going to medal. She misses that attempt at 1.96m. She's out of the top 10.

Truly a well deserved gold medal to add to Mariya’s multiple world championships for one of the most dominant high jumpers and athletes for nearly a decade! She’s normally so stoic when she jumps whether she makes it or not and this is the first time I’ve seen her show such emotion on a big stage so you know it meant a lot to her. Ukraine also has got a bright future with their young jumpers! McDermott was great and truly ‘rose’ to the occasion so it was just a great competition all around!

Even though they got the title wrong, I'm still totally enjoying this 😄

Luv the Queen, truly a dark beauty! What extraordinary confidence and bravati to throw a kiss to everyone at 234:19 just before Nicola jumped and Mariya won gold ... pure class!!

This is a superior presentation of the 2021 Olympic Women's High Jump. Very well done.

Ох Мария я так за Вас болел. Вы Дива спорта спасибо как мы Вас любим

[@rangersmith4652]

Awesome event! It is fitting that Mariya won it by clearing 2.04 rather than on count back. Superb competition!

Like the Women's Pole Vault it wasn't that high compared to 5years ago so anybody had a chance to win a medal even 🥇

Mariya just has so much class.. A mile ahead, of her fellow jumpers.
