Armand Duplantis, also known as “Mondo,” broke the world record in the pole vault once again by clearing 6.26 meters at a Diamond League meet in Poland. This marks the third world record he has set this year, with the previous ones at the Olympic Games in Paris where he cleared 6.25 meters. Duplantis, a 24-year-old athlete who competes for Sweden, has now broken the world record a total of 10 times in his career, each time by one centimeter. Born in Louisiana, Duplantis has made a name for himself in the pole vaulting world and continues to push the boundaries of the sport. His latest achievement in Chorzow continues to solidify his position as one of the top athletes in the pole vaulting discipline. With his consistent ability to break records and achieve new heights, Duplantis has proven himself as a dominant force in the sport and a true talent to watch in future competitions.
