World-record-setting pole vault jump by Olympic champion Duplantis repeated.
Here's a fresh take on the article:
New Heights in Pole Vault: Mondo Smashes His Own Record
Swedish phenomenon Armand "Mondo" Duplantis sent the crowd wild as he shattered his own pole vault world record during the Stockholm Diamond League event. The 25-year-old prodigy cleared a staggering 6.28-meters with his first attempt, making it a memorable homecoming for the star athlete.
Duplantis now reigns supreme with a new world record, surpassing his previous mark of 6.27-meters, achieved back in March 2022 at an indoor meeting in Clermont-Ferrand, France. With this 12th world record under his belt, onlookers could only marvel at the extraordinary athlete's astonishing feats [1][2][3].
The Australian contender, Kurtis Marshall, took second place, clearing 5.90-meters, while the long jump competition was dominated by Tara Davis-Woodhall from the USA, who jumped 7.05-meters.
On the Other Side of the Field:
German long jump sensation, Malaika Mihambo, had a somewhat disappointing performance, finishing in fourth place with a leap of 6.75-meters. It was the exceptional Davis-Woodhall who took the gold medal crown in the long jump competition.
In the 3000m steeplechase, German Bronze Medalist Karl Bebendorf stole the show, achieving a personal best time of 8:11.81 minutes. The event took place in a relatively uncompetitive field, allowing Bebendorf to secure a surprise victory.

After breaking his own pole vault world record at the Stockholm Diamond League event, Armand "Mondo" Duplantis continued to dominate the sports scene with his extraordinary feats. Despite a less impressive performance by German long jump sensation, Malaika Mihambo, it was Tara Davis-Woodhall from the USA who showcased her prowess in both the long jump and the pole vault events. On the other hand, the 3000m steeplechase saw a surprising victory by German Bronze Medalist Karl Bebendorf, who achieved a personal best time.
