Newman, from Delaware, Ont., finished at the same height as silver medallist Katie Moon, but had one more missed attempt than the *********.

Nina Kennedy of Australia cleared 4.90 metres to win gold.

Newman is the first ********* pole vaulter to win a medal since William Halpenny took bronze in the men’s competition at the 1912 Stockholm Games.

Edward Archibald’s bronze in the men’s event at the 1908 London Games is the only other Olympic pole vault medal in ********* history.
