Close to the best ever? I'm occupied elsewhere and can't confirm the research, but I did get this e-mail:
<<The 4.70 which was Jenn's leadoff jump was not the highest of all time,
but it was right up there. Issy opened at 4.73 at the 2005 Van Damme,
4.72 at the Stockholm meet that same year, and 4.71 at last year's Paris
meet, among those I could quickly find.>>
