Fredrik Samuelsson had a heavy first day of the multi-fight and was on an 18th place before the decision. On the second day, it also started heavily when he ran in at 14.78 on the 110-meter hurdle, which was a bit above the year-end. After another three branches, Samuelsson was able to finish in a 15th place with 7860 points, just over 300 points from his best series ever.
When the world record holder and reigning world champion Kevin Mayer was forced to cancel in the lead after seven branches, the competition was wide open.
In the end, it was Niklas Kaul who was able to take home the World Cup gold on personalized 8691 points. Thus, the 21-year-old becomes the youngest World Cup winner ever in a ten match. Two were Maicel Uibo from Estonia, 8604 points, while Damian Warner from Canada clinched the bronze on the total score 8529.
