1995 World Championships in Athletics – Women's triple jump

These are the official results of the Women's Triple Jump event at the 1995 IAAF World Championships in Gothenburg, Sweden.

This event was jumping in the same facility as Jonathan Edwards had set the still standing world record for men just three days earlier.

Over the course of his series, Edwards had added 32 cm to Willie Banks' previous record that had stood for over a decade.

The second round intensified with world record holder and defending champion Anna Biryukova jumping 14.85m to take the lead and Iva Prandzheva moving into second with a 14.76m.

The jump was measured at 15.50 m (50 ft 10 in), adding 41 cm to the existing world record - like Edwards, a Beamonesque improvement.
