Lavillenie and Pearson the First Stars to Sign Up For BrusselsPublished by IAAF on April 1, 2015 The 2014 World Athlete of the Year Renaud Lavillenie will compete at the AG Insurance Memorial Van Damme in Brussels, the 2015 IAAF Diamond League final on 11 September, the meeting organisers announced on Tuesday (31). The flying French pole vaulter has been unbeaten this winter, going over six metres at no fewer than five meetings, culminating in a world-leading 6.04m at the European Indoor Championship in Prague on 8 March. Lavillenie has targeted six metres in the King Baudouin Stadium in the Belgian capital, a height no other athlete has ever jumped in Brussels, not even Lavillenie’s idol Sergey Bubka, the man he supplanted as world record holder last year. Australia’s Olympic 100m hurdles champion Sally Pearson will also be in Brussels this coming September. Read the full article at: www.iaaf.org
