Yaroslav RYBAKOV - Russia - 2008 Olympics High Jump bronze (result)

Yaroslav is pictured above during the final of the mens High Jump at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Rybakov, a two time World Championship silver medallist and European champion, added an Olympic medal to his collection with a third place finish. His leap of 2.34m saw him clear the same height as Germaine Mason but it was the British athlete who took the silver on the countback rule.
