Swede Duplantis Soars to New Pole Vault World Record with 6.28m Jump
- On June 15, during the Diamond League competition held in Stockholm, Armand Duplantis established a new men's pole vault world record by clearing a height of 6.28 meters.
- Duplantis, motivated by a promise to his grandmother and his dream to break the world record at home, faced pressure to perform in front of a home crowd.
- Duplantis cleared the height on his first attempt, celebrated wildly, and was challenged by Australian Kurtis Marschall, who vaulted 5.90 meters but failed at six meters.
- This marked Duplantis’ 12th world record, improving his previous mark by one centimeter, with the crowd erupting as the two-time Olympic champion called the feeling "magic, it's magic."
- Duplantis’s achievement reinforces his dominance and suggests he aims to continue setting records and maintaining his top status in the sport.
