US EditionFrom world records to world anthems, new creative jump for Duplantis
- On Saturday in Torun, Poland, Armand Duplantis won his fourth consecutive world indoor title with a tournament-record vault of 6.25m.
- Following the Mondo Classic, Duplantis chose not to chase 6.32, saying it was about the battle, not another record, and the quick turnaround was too tough.
- Duplantis vaulted six times and cleared the bar on each occasion, demonstrating consistency under pressure, notably clearing his first attempts at 6.10m and 6.15m after opening by sailing over 5.50m.
- The podium featured Karalis and Marschall, with Karalis taking silver at 6.05m and Marschall bronze at 6.00m, while Coe said, 'If he goes on breaking world records, we're not only going to be cancelling our summer party, we'll probably be cancelling the Christmas party as well.'
- The Torun arena holds special meaning for Duplantis and he set the first of his 15 world records there in 2020, calling it a place that changed his life.
