Angelica Moser set a new Swiss indoor record in the pole vault at the Weltklasse Zürich event. As reported by the Tages-Anzeiger, Moser managed to shine in the atmosphere of Zurich's main train station by clearing a height that represents a significant leap in her performance.

Despite her outstanding effort, she did not secure the victory. Moser finished in second place behind American athlete Hana Moll. This outcome echoes the competition in Lausanne, where Moser also placed behind Moll, as noted by the NZZ.

The pole vaulter has already achieved five podium finishes in the Diamond League this season. Weltklasse Zürich marks her first podium appearance in this event series, highlighted by several media outlets, including SRF and 20 Minuten.

In addition to her impressive result, Moser captivated the audience with her performance at Zurich's HB, underscoring the charm and uniqueness of the event. Expectations for the athletes in this special atmosphere are high, and Moser certainly met those expectations with her impressive showing.
