Tania Murray

As Murray and Boyle were the only two to clear 1.88 metres at their first attempts, they went into a jump-off to decide the gold and silver medals.

After a dramatic jump-off, Murray eventually emerged victorious, and took the gold medal.

[2][4] Murray again competed in the high jump at the 1994 Commonwealth Games at Victoria, finishing fourth on a countback with the bronze medallist Debbie Marti from England, after both athletes had a best height of 1.91 metres.

They moved to the United States in the late 1990s, but Murray returned to New Zealand after their marriage ended, finding employment as the sports coordinator at Cromwell College for five years.

[2] She remarried, to Russ Haigh, and the couple have a house renovation business in Cromwell.
