Three years ago, Armand Duplantis became the world record holder for the first time.
This at a gala in Torun, Poland.
Tonight is the time for this year's edition of that competition, but this year without Duplantis.
The European champion against Montler
But there are still conditions for good Swedish results.
Among other things, Thobias Montler competes in the long jump competition, and after 8.19 in the GP competition in Sätrahallen ten days ago and 8.12 in Gothenburg last week, he feels that his form is good.
- The form is where it should be.
I got good answers with me from above all Stockholm, so those are the ones I'm taking with me, he tells SVT Sport.
The starting field in tonight's competition is high-class, with among others the reigning European Championship gold medalist Miltiadis Tentoglou in the starting list.
- It is the absolute best opposition in the world that will be in place.
So it's just a matter of creating as many chances as you can, he says.
How far should we expect you to jump?
- Haha, it's hard to say.
But we are aware that the competition record is 8.12.
There will probably be smoke from somewhere.
