Johanna agström finished eighth in the sprint qualifier and looked alert in the quarterfinals where she easily moved on.
In the semis, the Swede also looked to make the process short with the competitors, but in the race she slowed down and after the finish photo it was clear that Anamarija Lampic and Jessie Diggins were responsible for a better finish - thus she was knocked out.
Afterwards, Hagström was defeated.
- No, I'm so incredibly annoyed with myself.
I think I do most things right as in the semis and get good positions.
Then I turn off the speed when I may have four pole pulls left.
I realize after the last pole vault that I did not have one person next to me, but two.
I only see one person.
I do not see Lampic next to Diggins.
So incredibly annoying, she says and continues.
- I only saw one person as well.
Then I thought it was calm.
When there is a pole pull left, I realize that they are two and then I will be late.
I have to learn the hard way, it's sour.
Had I given all the way in, I would have been in the final.
I was aware of that.
However, it was Swedish helpall.
Jonna Sundling won easily before Emma Ribom and Maja Dahlqvist.
