Sleepyhead?

Sadly, under-17 pole vault competitions don’t normally make major news headlines. Junior athletics competitions are very important, but they just don’t have the flair of games like soccer, basketball, and rugby. Still, that’s no reason for the athletes to fall asleep while on the job!

In the picture, Australian pole vaulting athlete Lauren Hyde-Cooling was snapped while crossing the bar during an under-17 sports competition. The mean sports photographer made it look like she was sleepy, but rest assured: that’s not a real yawn! In fact, Hyde-Cooling is such a dedicated athlete she’s set to compete at the upcoming Tokyo Olympics.
