WELLINGTON (NZL): Olympic pole vault bronze medallist Eliza McCartney is hoping to matching her training form when she begins her European competition campaign next month. The New Zealander, who was disappointed with her 4.70m for second at the Commonwealth Games, told Newshub: “It’s a frustrating thing when you’re jumping better in training than you are in competition. I’ve always been the other way around, where I’ve been jumping lower in training and jumping higher in competitions, so it’s actually quite a strange thing to get your head around.”
