Malaysian Roslinda Samsu claimed the title of women's pole vault of the 17th Asian Athletics Championships on Sunday at the Jordanian capital of Amman, bringing Malaysia's total number of gold medals to two at the championships.
Samsu did not meet any challenge as she finished with 4.2 meters at the event where only three athletes took part.
Bing Jie Rachel Yang from Singapore ranked second with 3.5 meters. Li Ling from China finished the event with no result since she failed three times at the first height, thus there was no bronze medal awarded for the event.
After finishing the event, Li said she was a little nervous during the competition since it was the first time for her to participate in an international tournament.
Li's coach Xu Yaoliang said Li lost a medal due to lacking in international experience.
"It's a pity for the 18-year old girl who should have got a medal," said Xu. (Xinhua)

Roslinda Samsu still not showing her performance in Olympic. To me she could not beat her national record due to her worse level performance lately.
Her best record - 4.45m
