Holly Bradshaw, who won pole vault bronze yesterday, speaking on BBC One:
"That's the first time I've watched it back and I got goosebumps, I was that chilled by it. Wow, to watch that back is amazing.""I didn't realise that until I got back and saw on Twitter that someone had posted that! I was shocked, it's just fantastic. It's something I've worked for my whole life and something I've dreamed of my whole career. I've come so close so many times, to finally secure the medal - it's just incredible. I'm so happy.
"It's been such a rocky journey for me with injuries and coming so close, I've pretty much put my family through so much, coming back crying, injury after injury, my husband's probably sick of a grumpy Holly. "This medal's as much theirs as it is mine, they've been there every step of the way. Pole vault is such a crazy event with so many variables, things can go wrong so easily, which is why you can come so close, so many times. To finally secure it means so much to me and everyone in my team."
