Meijer almost saw the comedy in today's competition, which was won by Sandi Morris at the world best of 4.73.
- I push in the sprint and push in the gym but can not jump.
I do not understand what to do, says Meijer who had problems with the poles and did not find the right one in Birmingham's Diamond League competition, which was an outdoor debut for Meijer.
"Do not even know what the problem is"
- The staff was too hard and I could not jump here.
I might have jogged on the approach track but I should have noticed and it was not that bad and I have jumped with worse technology but still got through it.
I kind of do not get it together.
I do not even know what the problem is, do not know what to work with.
In the last session before leaving for Birmingham, Meijer jumped with a short approach and the transition to a long approach did not work at all.
- The last session before I went here felt a little better but it was also on a short approach.
We found some small things and thought it would drop when we came to the competition with a little adrenaline and audience and so on.
However, I am not completely surprised, almost fascinated that I do not know why it does not work, says Meijer.
