Armand Duplantis has done it again.
Just 20 days after he defied gravity at the Paris Olympics with a record-setting jump, the Swedish-American pole-vaulter eclipsed his mark yet again on Sunday at the Diamond League event in Silesia, Poland.
Duplantis — known as “Mondo” — vaulted to a height of 6.26 metres, breaking his Paris mark of 6.25 metres on Aug. 5, which gave him Olympic gold at the time.
American Sam Kendricks and Emmanouil Karalis of Greece could only vault as high as 6.0 metres.
Duplantis has broken the world pole vault record 11 times now.
The track and field star has had an incredible run at major international championships, winning gold at the last three Worlds and the Olympic Games in Tokyo and Paris.
