This is Mahuchikh’s third consecutive European indoor gold. In 2021, in Toruń, she claimed gold with a jump of 2.00m. Two years later in Istanbul, she won with a mark of 1.98m.
She equalled Rosemarie Ackermann’s record with her achievement. Until now, the East German athlete was the first high jumper to win three consecutive European Indoor Championship championships.
Notably, before the European Championships, Mahuchikh won the Banská Bystrica high jump tournament, becoming the first athlete of the season to clear the 2.00m mark.
A day earlier, Ukrainian high jumper Oleh Doroshchuk set the best world result of the season and claimed gold at the European Championships.
