Roberta Bruni (born 8 March 1994) is an Italian pole vaulter. She competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics, in Pole vault.[1] Her personal best of 4.60 m (15 ft 1 in) is the Italian record for the event.

Career

[edit]

Her personal best indoor (4.60 m) is the second best junior performance of all-time after the world record of the Swedish Angelica Bengtsson,[2] established at the 2013 Italian Athletics Indoor Championships.[3]

Her height of 4.35 m established on 16 June 2012 in Misano Adriatico was the third best by a junior athlete that year.[4][5] She is a friend of fellow Italian pole vaulter Giorgia Benecchi.

In 2021, she participated in the Tokyo Olympics, but failed to make it past the qualifying stages stopping at 4.25m.[6]

In 2022, she participated in the World Championships in Eugene and the European Championships in Munich. In Eugene, she failed to qualify for the final after jumping 4.35 m on her second attempt and failing to clear 4.50 m.[7] In Monaco, she reached the final and finished the European championships in seventh place with a measure of 4.55 m, jumped on her third attempt.[8]

In 2023, after a lower-than-expected World Championships in Budapest (in which she failed to pass the qualifying round), she set a new Italian record in Chiari on September 4, with a measure of 4.73 m.[9][10]
