Last Sunday, there was a personal record of 8.23 ​​at the Bauhaus Gala in Stockholm.

And yesterday was a new success for Thobias Montler, who made his first stay in Monaco when he competed in the Diamond League.

There he improved his personal record to 8.27.

- The competition went very well, not only for me, but it was a good result overall, he says to SVT Sport.

The body responds well in jumping and training, says Montler.

That's why it's going so well right now.

- It is enough that the top of form has started to come now and the curve goes in the direction both I and Yannick (Tregaro) want.

Then come the results.

Then it is an Olympic year and we have chosen to make a topping closer to the Olympics.

We feel we are on the right track.

But there is more to pick up.

- There is still a lot to do.

It's the spontaneous feeling I have in me.

- I am still not completely in top shape, we have planned for the Olympics.

"Greatest thing you can experience"

The Olympics will start in less than two weeks and the 25-year-old is charged.

- It's so big and I'm sickly tagged, then I try to keep it pretty chill so as not to burn too much thoughts on it.

Could it be that you think too much about it?

- I think it happened easily.

The Olympics are the biggest thing you can experience as an athlete.

It's probably easy to spin away on other pieces and burn off in other places.

It is important not to make it too big for yourself.

Montler has made a stopover in Amsterdam, where he will take the flight home to Gothenburg.

After that, training and recovery awaits before leaving for Fukuoka.

- With a top of form, my chances are increased.

But a championship is always a championship.

Many will perform better than expected, some will go away.

It is important to be part of the skull and do your best.

Do you raise the demands on yourself to win a medal after the latest results?

- I will not make any demands on myself that I have to get away with a medal, but of course I aim as high as possible.

- You always go to win.
