Natalie Uy should brace herself for a long road ahead toward next year’s Olympics in Paris.
The 28-year-old Filipino-American pole vaulter managed to clear 4.00 meters in claiming a bronze medal on Wednesday night at the 32nd Southeast Asian Games, far from the Olympic qualifying height of 4.70m.
“I would love to be there (Paris Olympics), but a lot of work should be done,’’ said Uy after the 2019 SEA Games champion failed to hurdle 4.05m twice at the Morodok Techo National Stadium.
Indonesia’s Diva Jayadi clinched the gold after clearing 4.
