Mondo Duplantis Sets New Pole Vault World Record at 6.26 Meters

The Swedish-American athlete continues his record-breaking streak, achieving his 10th world record in Poland.

Duplantis cleared 6.26 meters at the Silesia Diamond League event, surpassing his previous record by one centimeter.
This marks the third time in 2024 that Duplantis has broken the pole vault world record.
He initially set the record at 6.17 meters in February 2020 and has incrementally improved it since.
Duplantis won gold at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he also set a world record at 6.25 meters.
The 24-year-old athlete has become a dominant figure in pole vaulting, consistently breaking his own records.
