Abigail Kwarteng was unable to clear 1.92m after jumping 1.71m, 1.76m, 1.81m, 1.85m, and 1.89m in the Women’s Long Jump at the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

Rose Yeboah registered her new personal best of 1. 89m. The reigning African Senior Championships champion is a raw talent and her potential is amazing.

She will need to polish as soon as possible because she's destined for big things. She's with the University of Cape Coast.

Both Ghanaian contenders were good at the semi-finals, but had some difficulties and are out of medal reckoning.

But with two Ghanaians in the final of the Commonwealth Games were inspiring and encouraging.
