Angelica Therese Bengtsson (born 8 July 1993) is a Swedish track and field athlete who specialises in the pole vault.
It quickly became apparent that she had a talent for pole vaulting;[4] however, and she began her career at club level for IFK Växjö, before going on to join Hässelby SK.
She enjoyed her first global victory at the 2009 IAAF World Youth Championships, where at the age of sixteen she won the pole vault gold medal with a clearance of 4.32 metres.
Her winning mark was enough to qualify her for the senior 2010 European Athletics Championships, but she opted to focus on the younger age category competitions instead.
Although windy conditions reduced the level of performance, a first time clearance at 4.15 m sealed her victory over the older girls and she added an extra ten centimetres between herself and Holly Bleasdale for a winning mark of 4.25 m.[9] Her achievements made her one of the headline athletes at the first ever Summer Youth Olympics in Singapore.
