All 14 qualifiers cleared 1.74 to make the final – a height reached by
only four in Tokyo – and eight of these cleared 1.76 in the final. After
1.78, Valentová led from her 18 year-old teammate Rezková, but only
the Czech and Okorokova could clear 1.80 first time. Kozyr was the
only jumper to join them, as Schmidt, the pre-Olympic favourite fell by
the wayside, finishing fifth.
At 1.82 all failed twice, and then the short (1.69) Rezková cleared to
rapturous applause. The enthusiastic and attractive Czech woman was
one of the most popular winners in Mexico City.
