Sprint duel in Zurich
Unusual show between Duplantis and Warholm
Pole vaulter versus hurdler - an unusual athletics duel will take place in Switzerland at the beginning of September.
Olympic champions and world record holders Armand Duplantis and Karsten Warholm will compete against each other over 100 meters on the eve of the Diamond League meeting in Zurich on 4 September. The outcome of the sprint seems completely open.
The duo's best times are not far apart: 400-metre hurdler Warholm clocked a time of 10.49 seconds in 2017, while pole vaulter Duplantis ran the 100 meters in 10.57 just one year later.
The latter challenged the hurdler on social media, who ultimately agreed to the show competition between two superstars of the athletics scene.
