Before the Olympics, I will have another start – the European Youth Championship. I think I can try this height again. I am waiting for Tokyo 2020, there is only a month left. The competition will be interesting because most girls have results of two meters and above. I hope I will be able to win a medal because all athletes want one at the Olympic Games, ”said the champion of this stage.
