RIO DE JANEIRO -- The pole vault world-record holder was banned. Skal Labissiere Jersey . The hometown favorite didnt make it through qualifying.It was all perfectly set up for Jenn Suhr to win another Olympic gold medal.It didnt happen.The American couldnt overcome a respiratory infection that left her dizzy, coughing up blood earlier in the day and throwing up twice near the pole vault area during the competition.Suhr ended up tied for seventh Friday in an event won by Ekaterini Stefanidi of Greece. Sandi Morris of the United States finished with silver and Eliza McCartney of New Zealand wound up with bronze.I feel horrible, said Suhr, who captured Olympic gold four years ago in London and silver at the 2008 Beijing Games. Im actually getting concerned. Its going on Day 10 and I feel worse today.Her next stop -- home to New York get treatment for this mysterious illness.They think its respiratory and now in the lungs. This morning I was coughing up blood, the 34-year-old Suhr said. Its getting scary.I just want to get out of here and go home and figure it out.Just when the path to another gold medal appeared wide open, too.Suhrs top competitor was supposed to be Yelena Isinbayeva, the world-record holder who has been banned from the games, along with dozens of other Russians, because of a doping investigation. Isinbayeva called it quits on Friday as she focuses on a new career in sports politics and even mulls over an offer to lead the Russian track and field team.Also missing from the field was Fabiana Murer, the Brazilian who was expected to get in the mix for a medal but didnt make it out of qualifying.Its such a crappy feeling to know youve worked four years for this and for this to happen, Suhr said. Its embarrassing, too.Early on, Suhr thought she felt OK enough to compete. While warming up, she was clearing the bar at 4.90 meters, which wouldve won this competition. It didnt carry over into the final. Stefanidi and Morris both cleared the same height -- 4.85 -- but Stefanidi had fewer misses.I was like, `Im on, Suhr said. After warmups, everything shut down. My muscles -- Ive never had them shake.Morris could tell her teammate didnt feel well.She just looked pretty dreary. I dont know how else to say it, Morris said. She just didnt look energetic. I really feel for her. Its just an unfortunate circumstance to get sick at this time. Willie Cauley-Stein Jersey . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Buddy Hield Kings Jersey . The team said Saturday that Lopez was hurt during its 121-120 overtime loss at Philadelphia on Friday. The Nets said they would issue another update next week after consultation with their doctors. http://www.kingsbasketballpro.com/Ben-Mclemore-Kings-Jersey/ .
