Silver medal at the 2017 World High Jump Championships Danil Lyssenko is in top form, he would now be a favorite in international competitions, 2019 World Cup silver medalist Mikhail Akimenko has told .
On Sunday, Lyssenko won the international athletics tournament “We are together” in Belarus, repeating the best result of the season in the world. The Russian took a height of 2.33 meters. Earlier, his compatriot Ilya Ivanyuk, South Korean Wu San Hyuk, American Juwon Harrison and Australian Joel Baden showed the same result in the season. This result qualifies for the Olympic Games in Paris.
– Of course, I follow the results of the season. I am very happy for Lysenko, for Ivanyuk. Daniel is just a young man! He has endured a lot and is now proving he can jump beautifully and demonstrate the results that competitors around the world are showing. If we could now compete on the international stage, Lyssenko would be one hundred percent the favorite in the competition. There are not so many talented jumpers in the world now, like Ivanyuk and Lysenko, Akimenko told .
