Croatian high jumper Blanka Vlasic has been voted women's European Athlete of the Year.
Vlasic earned the honour on Thursday by winning her first European outdoor title in Barcelona, world indoors gold at Doha, Qatar; and all seven Diamond League meetings that staged her event.
Her jump of 2.06 metres indoors at Arnstadt, Germany, in February was the highest all year.
The 26-year-old Vlasic also won the European award in 2007. It is organised by the European Athletics governing body and voted on by national federations, fans, media and an expert panel.
British heptathlete Jessica Ennis was second, after adding European gold to her world title. Verena Sailer of Germany, the European 100-metre champion, was third.
