	Markov struggles after airline loses pole - Athletics -
		Markov, the 2001 world champion, lost his pole when he left Australia two weeks ago and none of the three airlines he flew with to reach Europe - Qantas, Lufthansa and Swiss Air - has been able to trace it.
		Markov said he believed the pole was the one he used to clear 6.05metres and win the 2001 world championship but later clarified that if it wasn't exactly the same pole, it was one of the same design, size and flexibility.
		Markov, a former Belarusian who moved to Australia in 1997, said he had found a pole with the same flexibility but it was too big for his hand, while another was too heavy.

		So much better in fact that Markov feels he now has a good chance of defending his title, and Perth-based Markov hopes to fly through the qualifying rounds for his event at the World Championships on Tuesday.

		He may still need a little luck in the Telstra A-series in Melbourne though after Markov sparked back into action with a towering clearance of 5.75m in the B-grade interclub final in Adelaide last weekend, winning by 60cm.
		Whether Burgess - whose nickname is “Budgie” (after the colourful little Budgerigar parrot) - can fly high away from his west coast home is a question and a challenge he is determined to answer in Melbourne.
