The Straits Times
|May 30, 2024
Reigning Olympic and world champion Armand Duplantis is feeling "confident" after clearing 6 metres and narrowly missed a world-record attempt at the Golden Spike athletics meet in the Czech Republic on May 28.
-
The 24-year-old Swede set a pole vault world mark of 6.24m in April and got close to 6.25m in the eastern Czech city of Ostrava, but brushed the bar with his belly on the third attempt.
"I'm happy about the last attempt, it felt quite good. I was actually closer than I thought I was going to be. Gives me confidence going forward," he said.
