Rose Yeboah, Ghana’s first-ever high jumper at the Olympic Games, was unable to advance to the finals of the women’s high jump event on Friday.
The 22-year-old athlete failed to clear the bar set at 1.92 meters on her third attempt.
Yeboah, a two-time African champion, successfully cleared heights of 1.83 meters and 1.88 meters on her first and second attempts, respectively.
However, she fell short at the 1.92-meter mark, which is lower than her personal best of 1.97 meters.
