She managed to clear only 1.88 meters, falling short of the 1.92-meter standard required to move on to the next height of 1.95 meters, missing out on the final 12 athletes to progress to the finals.
No High Jump final for Rose Yeboah at Paris 2024 after she failed to make the qualifying height. There’s no chance of her finishing in the best 12 performers either.
How ever, the experience gained from her first #Olympics is immeasurable. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🇬🇭#CitiSports pic.twitter.com/oVCqDaZk5m

Rose joins Poland’s Zodzik Maria and Greece’s Dosi Panagiota, who were also eliminated at this stage.
It marks the second Ghanaian athlete to be knocked out of their respective event, following Harry Stacey’s seventh-place finish in the men’s 100m freestyle event on Tuesday at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
