PARIS, France – Sweden’s Mondo Duplantis broke his own pole vault world record when he cleared 6.25 meters at the third attempt on Monday, August 5, having retained the Olympic gold medal with a 6.00m leap. Duplantis entered the fray at 5.70, and promptly cleared it by about a meter. He sat out 5.80, then flew easily over 5.85, as others all around him were starting to fall by the wayside.
Kendricks, the 2017 and 2019 world champion and 2016 Olympic bronze medalist, missed the Tokyo Games after testing positive for COVID after his arrival, and spoke this week about the turmoil he suffered as brands considered him “damaged goods.”
