A battle between the top two of 2003, Klüft and Eunice Barber, was the
hoped-for scenario, but the frequently injured Barber missed the out-
door season, leaving Klüft as the prohibitive favourite. The event began
with the three Americans Perry (12.74), Lott-Hogan (13.13) and
Burrell (13.17) leading the way from Klüft’s lifetime best of 13.21.
Then the Swede cleared 1.91, and she was 112 points clear of her near-
est rival. From that point on Klüft extended her lead in every event.
Skujytė (16.40) and Perry (22.91) led the Shot and 200m, but Klüft
produced four seasonal bests and dominated her opposition. The battle
for the silver medal was between Sotherton and SkujytÄ—, with the
Briton ahead by 176 points after the long jump, but 63 points behind
after the javelin. SkujytÄ— managed to hold on to the silver, losing 52
points to Sotherton’s 800m pb of 2:12.27.
Defending Champion Lewis won her hurdles heat and placed second
in the shot put but withdrew after failing to reach six metres in the long
jump.
