8. Tora Harris, USA, 30
9. Andrey Tereshin, RUS, 27.5
10. Kyriakos Ioannou, CYP, 20.5
Nearly all the points above were earned during the indoor season. Manson inexplicably bombed at the Grand Prix meet in Osaka today.

Pole Vault

9. Giovanni Lanaro, MEX, 17.5
10. Tobias Scherbarth, GER, 17
Ditto for the vault. Miles won the Drake Relays and tied for second with Lanaro in Osaka today; the Mexican earned just enough points to move into the top ten.

Long Jump
1. Sebastian Bayer GER 64
2. Fabrice Lapierre AUS 24
3. Dwight Phillips USA 23
4. Marcin Starzak POL 22
4. Mitchell Watt AUS 22

7. Salim Sdiri FRA 14
9. Kafétien Gomis FRA 13
9. Miguel Pate USA 13
Bayer's points mostly come from his massive Euro Indoor win. Phillips put up the year's next-best jump last week in Baie Mahault. Pate moves into the top ten with a third in Kingston last week and a win in Osaka today.

Triple Jump
1. Teddy Tamgho, FRA, 66
2. Arnie David Girat, CUB, 64
3. Fabrizio Donato, ITA, 51
4. Yoandris Betanzos, CUB, 40
5. Alexis Copello, CUB, 37

8. Julien Kapek, FRA, 20
9. Viktor Yastrebov, UKR, 17
10. Leevan Sands, BAH, 16
10. Brandon Roulhac, USA, 16
Tamgho was the sensation of the indoor season before bombing out at the European Championships. The Cubans have been putting up some good numbers at home. Yesterday's competition in Doha looked to be a good one on paper but it didn't turn out that way, with Gregorio getting only one mark and ending up last.

WOMEN
High Jump
1. Blanka Vlašic, CRO, 182
2. Ariane Friedrich, GER, 137
3. Ruth Beitia, ESP, 59

7. Vita Palamar, UKR, 18.5
8. Amy Acuff, USA, 17
9. Iva Strakova, CZR, 13
10. Destinee Hooker, USA, 13
Vlašic continues to dominate, handily winning in Doha over a field that included Beitia, Shkolina and Palamar. NCAA indoor champ Hooker is a fast-rising star.
