Melanie Adams, hot new pole vaulter
Posted at 17:57 on 20 November, 2007
(Must not make reference to said athlete being handy with a pole...) Pole vaulter Melanie Adams is the hot new thing in Australian athletics. Forget Tatiana and Tamsyn, Melanie is a finalist in a new modelling competition. (Includes bikini picture.)
Her name is Melanie Adams, and with a 2007 personal-best of 3.8 metres and high hopes of vaulting 4.2 metres by the end of the season, she is seriously good at the caper. But the 19-year-old is also making quite a name for herself on the catwalk, to the point where she has reached next Tuesday's final of a national competition run by the Cosmopolitan Model management company to find Australia's "next big-name model".
Wow.
