- Duplantis: a world pole record holder away from the stereotype
The Swede Armand Duplantis broke his own world pole record with a 6.18 meter jump this Saturday at the Glasgow meeting, one centimeter above the mark he won seven days ago in Torun (Poland).
The young pertiguista, 20, premiered his status as world record holder with his second world record.
Seven days after his spectacular jump in Torun (Poland), with which he set the world record for the French Renaud Lavillenie (6.16 m in 2014), Duplantis was left alone after exceeding the ribbon located 6 meters from the ground. No one could accompany him at that point, and directly ordered the bar to rise to 6.18, resolved to beat his world record.
Imperial throughout the meeting, which is held on an indoor court, Duplantis clearly exceeded the bar, without touching it. Authentic pole vaulting genius, European champion in 2018 and then runner-up in the world in 2019, the Swede confirms that he is the new dominator of the discipline just over five months from the Tokyo Olympics .
