At the World Championships in Athletics, the emperor of the pole vault, Leupentis, continued his phenomenal record streak.

He even broke his own world record, which he wrote indoors.

Duplantis literally flew in the sky.



He easily crossed the 6m and confirmed the championship early, and after successfully finishing the 6m 6 in the first round, he set a new competition record, and bowed his head calmly.



Then he pulled out a stronger pole, and he raised the bar a whopping 15cm to reach 6m 21.



Instead of his own outdoor world record of 6m 16, he will break the indoor world record of 6m20 at once.



In his first period, he failed because he could not adapt to the changed pole, but after all the matches of this tournament, he flew properly in the second period, where he received attention and played.



Soaring vigorously, he crossed the bar with plenty of time, and Duplantis, who set a world record for the third time this year alone, was delighted by doing somersaults.



Following last year's Olympics, the 22-year-old 'emperor of the pole', who won the indoor and outdoor world championships this year, was confident that he could jump higher.



[Du Plantis / Sweden National Pole Vault: It was really special that he was the last player left on the pitch.

Everyone looked at me.

It hasn't reached its peak yet.

I can definitely jump higher.]



A world record was also set in the women's 100m hurdles.



Nigeria's Amusan set a time of 12.12 seconds in the semifinals, breaking the previous world record of 0.08 seconds.



In the final, Amu San won his first gold medal in 12.06, faster than in the semifinals, which was not recognized as a world record with a tailwind exceeding 2 m/s.
