Gotta feel for Vlasic, she was perfect until the ultimate height and then had a second attempt clearance. Hellebaut made attempts at all the same heights and had 3 misses along the way but cleared the ultimate height on a first clearance.
Analysing these situations by my own less-than-bright lights, it seems that Vlasic had the better overall performance on the day (yeah, I know Hellebaut passed her last two attempts).
Hellebaut's 3 misses at lower height are cancelled, and Vlasic's otherwise perfect sequence are cancelled by one first clearance. I high jumped for a decade of my life and though I understood the letter of the law, I never understood the logic of it.
