In the final only two athletes cleared 1.95m, with Mahuchikh securing the win on countback and Montenegro's Marija Vuković finally winning her first major international medal with silver. 17-year-old Angelina Topić took bronze. The winning height of 1.95m was the lowest in Championships' history since 1974.
