**Fabiana de Almeida Murer** (born 16 March 1981[1]) is a retired Brazilian [pole vaulter](/source/Pole_vault). She holds the [South American record](/source/List_of_South_American_records_in_athletics) in the event with an indoor best of 4.82 m and an outdoor best of 4.87 m, making her the [fourth highest vaulter ever](/source/Pole_vault#Women_(comprehensive)) at the time, now the eighth. She won [gold medals](/source/Gold_medal) at the [2011 World Championships](/source/2011_World_Championships_in_Athletics), [2010 World Indoor Championships](/source/2010_IAAF_World_Indoor_Championships), and [2007 Pan American Games](/source/2007_Pan_American_Games). Murer represented Brazil at the [2008](/source/2008_Summer_Olympics), [2012](/source/2012_Summer_Olympics) and [2016 Summer Olympics](/source/2016_Summer_Olympics). She is a four-time [South American Champion](/source/South_American_Championships_in_Athletics) with wins in 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2011. Murer was coached by both the Ukrainian [Vitaly Petrov](/source/Vitaly_Petrov_(coach)), who managed the world record holders [Sergei Bubka](/source/Sergei_Bubka) and [Yelena Isinbayeva](/source/Yelena_Isinbayeva), and her husband, Élson Miranda de Souza, a former pole vaulter himself.

## Career

Murer set an outdoor personal best of 4.80 metres in June 2008 in [São Paulo](/source/S%C3%A3o_Paulo). This was a [South American record](/source/List_of_South_American_records_in_athletics).[2] She finished tenth at the [2008 Summer Olympics](/source/2008_Summer_Olympics) with a vault of 4.50 m, however, unable to scale the heights that she had in June. During the competition, the organisers lost one of Murer's poles, causing her to underperform as she spent over 10 minutes trying to get the pole back.[3][4]

She improved her outdoor record to 4.82 m in June 2009 at the [Troféu Brasil Caixa de Atletismo](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trof%C3%A9u_Brasil_Caixa_de_Atletismo&action=edit&redlink=1) meet. She made the jump en route to winning her fifth Brazilian championships in the event, breaking the area record for the eleventh time and placing joint sixth in the all-time lists.[5] She competed at the [2009 World Championships in Athletics](/source/2009_World_Championships_in_Athletics) in [Berlin](/source/Berlin) but she failed to match her early season form, finishing with a best clearance of 4.55 m.[6] She improved to 4.60 m at the [2009 IAAF World Athletics Final](/source/2009_IAAF_World_Athletics_Final), winning the [silver medal](/source/Silver_medal).

Murer at the [2010 World Indoor Championships](/source/2010_IAAF_World_Indoor_Championships) where she won the gold medal

At the [2010 IAAF World Indoor Championships](/source/2010_IAAF_World_Indoor_Championships), Murer took advantage of [Yelena Isinbayeva](/source/Yelena_Isinbayeva)'s failure at 4.75 m and continued at 4.80 m, clearing first time and winning her first global championships.[7] Murer improved her indoor mark to 4.83 m at the Grand Prix in [Birmingham](/source/Birmingham), [United Kingdom](/source/United_Kingdom).[8] She further improved her outdoor record in June to 4.85 m at the [2010 Ibero-American Championships](/source/2010_Ibero-American_Championships) in [San Fernando](/source/San_Fernando%2C_C%C3%A1diz), Spain. This mark placed her as the fourth greatest pole vaulter on the all-time lists. She then attempted to vault over 4.93 m, but failed three times.[9]

She was dominant on the [2010 IAAF Diamond League](/source/2010_IAAF_Diamond_League) circuit, winning three out of the six Diamond League race events. Her vault of 4.81 m to win at the [Weltklasse Zurich](/source/Weltklasse_Zurich) meeting made her the inaugural Diamond League winner of the women's pole vault. She was selected to represent the Americas team at the [2010 IAAF Continental Cup](/source/2010_IAAF_Continental_Cup), and although she won the [bronze medal](/source/Bronze_medal), her mark of 4.50 m was far from her year's best.[10] She retained her national title at the Troféu Brasil de Atletismo, vaulting 4.70 m to bring a close to her season.[11]

In 2011, Murer became the first Brazilian to win the [IAAF World Championship](/source/IAAF_World_Championships_in_Athletics), vaulting 4.85 m at the [2011 World Championships in Athletics](/source/2011_World_Championships_in_Athletics) in Daegu.[12][13]

Despite high expectations for the [2012 Summer Olympics](/source/2012_Summer_Olympics), Murer did not qualify for the finals. She failed on the first two attempts for 4.55 m, and gave up on the last, complaining about unfavorable wind conditions.[14]

In 2014, Murer won the second [Diamond League](/source/2014_IAAF_Diamond_League) circuit, winning four out of the seven diamond race events.[15]

Up until 2015, Murer's post-Olympics performances were underwhelming. Then, she earned a silver medal at both the [2015 Pan American Games](/source/2015_Pan_American_Games) and the [2015 World Championships](/source/2015_World_Championships_in_Athletics), surpassed only by the Cuban [Yarisley Silva](/source/Yarisley_Silva). In the latter, Murer reached again her personal best of 4.85 m.[16][17]

On 3 July 2016, she vaulted 4.87 m at the [Troféu Brasil de Atletismo](/source/Trof%C3%A9u_Brasil_de_Atletismo) in [São Bernardo do Campo](/source/S%C3%A3o_Bernardo_do_Campo), the Brazilian athletics trials to [Rio 2016](/source/Rio_2016), improving her own Brazilian and South American records again.[18] That same month, after attending the [Herculis](/source/Herculis) [Diamond League](/source/2016_IAAF_Diamond_League) meet, Murer reported pain in her neck. Despite treating it, by the time of the [London Grand Prix](/source/London_Grand_Prix), Murer was feeling a lack of strength in her arms. Tests revealed a cervical [spinal disc herniation](/source/Spinal_disc_herniation), leading Murer to go through extensive physical therapy to ensure she would perform normally during the [2016 Summer Olympics](/source/2016_Summer_Olympics) at home.[19] Still, by the time of the Games, Murer failed in her first attempts at clearing 4.55 m. She later attributed the failure on not being fully recovered from the hernia.[20]
