Swedish superstar The vaults of Armand Mondo Duplantis for 13. The world record of its own record in the pole broke on Tuesday 12th August at the Hungarian Grand Prix meeting in the Hungarian Grand Prix. The double Olympic champion continued his tradition of improving his previous brand with a single centimeter and reworked the height he had arranged in Stockholm in June.
Mondo, who won his second world title in the same stadium in 2023, was hard pushed by the Greek rival Emmanouil Karalis. Both men cleaned 6.02 m in their first attempts, but Karalis bowed after two failures at 6.11 m. Duplantis, although in the second attempt joined the Hungarian record All-Comers, which created a little bit of his best at the beginning of the evening, continued to add to the Hungarian record All-Comers.
When Karalis got out, the Swede had the bar lifted for the usual record attempt. At the first attempt, he was unsuccessful at 6.29 Ma on his second slightly rattled the bar, but almost in disbelief, he looked up to see that he would stay in place. Successful will has caused a huge roar from the crowd of Budapest and Duplantis celebrated directly with his partner, the desire of Inglander and his family.
His winning series began shaking with a rare lady for 5.62 m before cleaning the height during the second attempt. Then he sailed for the first time over 5.82 mA asked before he moved to the decisive heights. Australian Kurtis Marschall finished third with 5.82 m.
Duplantis, who first broke the world record in 2020 in Poland, has since taken the action to an unprecedented level. On Saturday it will also compete in Diamond League in Diamond Slemesia, at the same meeting, where he handed over the record last year.
Elsewhere in Budapest dominated the Dutch femke Bol 400m obstacles for women and ended in 52.24 seconds, more than two seconds before Belgian Naomi van den Broeck. American Jasmine Jones was the third at 54.61.
In 100 m women 100 meters, Marie-Josee Cote d’Avoire Tal Lou Smith victory for 10.97 seconds, followed by Jamaica Tina Clayton at 10.99 and Sherick Jackson (11.00). The Jamaican icon Sprint Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce, in what she said, will be her last competitive season, finished fourth in 11.07.
