Tina Schute gold with a championship record, also a collage for the Prime Minister
Tina Šutej, slovenska atletska rekorderka, je osvojila zlato medaljo na sredozemskeh igrah v Tarantu, kjer je preskočila 4,60 metra in postavila nov rekord iger. Njena zmaga je bila posebno pomembna zaradi poraza na evropskem prvenstvu v Birminghamu, kjer je zgrešila za eno mesto v finale. Šutej je v svoji izjavi izrazila zadovoljstvo z rezultatom in poudarila, da je vsak skok bil boljši. Anej Čurin Prapotnik, drugi slovenski tekmovalci, je pritekl do bronaste medalje na 100 m, kljub temu pa je izrazil željo po zlati. Oba tekmovalca sta bila del slovenske ekipe, ki je uveljavila svoje dosežke na mednarodnih tekmah.
Tina Šutej secured gold in the pole vault at the Mediterranean Games in Taranto with a new championship record, marking her second Olympic-level success after a disappointing performance at the European Championships in Birmingham. The 37-year-old Slovenian athlete cleared 4.60 meters, surpassing previous records set by Greek athletes in 2009 and 2013. Her victory came just days after she failed to qualify for the finals at the European Championships, finishing 13th with a jump of 4.40 meters. Šutej's performance in Taranto was far from straightforward. She struggled initially, managing to clear 4.20 meters only on her third attempt. However, once she found her rhythm, she successfully jumped 4.35, 4.45, and 4.55 meters on her first attempts before securing the record-breaking 4.60 meters on her third try. This effort proved decisive, as both French athlete Bérénice Petit and Italian Sonia Malavisi finished at 4.45 meters. Šutej’s win marked the second gold medal for Slovenia at the Games, following the achievement of 17-year-old Balinian Eneja Ozbič Primc earlier in the week. The victory in Taranto comes as a response to Šutej’s disappointment at the European Championships in Birmingham, where she fell short of expectations. Entering the competition as one of Slovenia’s top contenders, she failed to reach the finals, missing out on a spot by just one position. Despite this setback, Šutej remained focused and achieved a personal best in Taranto, which she described as a positive sign ahead of her upcoming Diamond League final in Brussels later that week. Šutej acknowledged the challenges she faced during the competition, particularly due to strong winds that made positioning for the vault difficult. “I had side gusts of up to three meters per second,” she said in a statement. “It was tough and even dangerous to find the right position for the pole insertion and then the jump. I don’t remember ever doing so many approaches on warm-up as I did today. But eventually, it clicked. Every jump got better, and 4.60 was the best. I didn’t want to take unnecessary risks anymore because I have the Diamond League final in Brussels on Saturday.” In addition to Šutej’s triumph, Anej Čurin Prapotnik claimed bronze in the men’s 100-meter sprint with a time of 10.43 seconds. He expressed dissatisfaction with his performance, noting that he felt he could have won gold. “I’m happy with the bronze medal, but I know I could have done better,” he said. “The first half of the race is a blur. I realized where I was on the track only in the second half and got a bit too ‘choked.’ Definitely, I should have been more focused from the start. But I’m satisfied with my season, especially since I set a national record with 10.09 seconds.” Meanwhile, Slovenia’s mixed judo team secured a bronze medal in the team competition after defeating Croatia in a dramatic extra round. The team included notable athletes such as Ana Škrabl, Nika Koren, and Neža Mesiček, who all contributed to the victory. Nika Koren highlighted the importance of teamwork, stating that competing as part of a team brought a different kind of motivation compared to individual competitions. The success of both Šutej and Prapotnik adds to Slovenia’s growing list of achievements at the Mediterranean Games, with the country already having secured multiple medals across various sports disciplines. As the competition continues, attention will remain on how other Slovenian athletes perform in their respective events, with hopes for further successes in the coming days.
