Olympic champion Armand ‘Mondo’ Duplantis improved his own pole vault word record by a centimetre at Sunday’s Diamond League Silesia meeting, posting a mark of 6.26 metres on his second attempt.
It is the 10th time the 24-year-old Swede has set a new world mark since he first became the world record holder with a vault of 6.17m in Torun, Poland, in February 2020.
