Rain break for Michaela Meijer and Angelica Bengtsson

For the Swedish part, this meant that Michaela Meijer and Angelica Bengtsson got an involuntary break during the qualifiers in the pole vault.

Both Swedes had managed over 4.40 when the rain became too heavy.

The limit for direct qualification was set at 4.70.

The running disciplines, in this case the semifinals of the ladies' 400 meter hurdles, could, however, continue despite the rain.
