American Jennifer Suhr set a world indoor record in the pole vault Saturday by clearing 5.02 metres (16.47 feet) at the US Indoor Track and Field Championships.
The reigning Olympic champion Suhr eclipsed the previous women's mark of 5.01 metres set by Russia's Yelena Isinbayeva in February of last year.
