6,26 m! Duplantis improves world record again
At the Diamond League athletics meeting in Chorzow/Silesia on Sunday, the Swede Armand Duplantis improved the pole vault world record he holds by a further 6.26m.
Olympic 5,000 m champion Jakob Ingebrigtsen also made his mark: Norway's running star obliterated the age-old world record for the non-Olympic 3,000 meters in 7:17.55 minutes. European javelin champion Victoria Hudson did not finish higher than seventh place, her best distance was 59.07 meters.
The 23-year-old Ingebrigsten was a good three seconds faster in Poland than Daniel Komen on September 1, 1996 in Rieti. The Kenyan ran 7:20.67 minutes back then. The Canadian Marco Arop produced a top time on Sunday in the 800 m in 1:41.86 minutes, the 200 m went to Letsile Tebogo from Botswana in 19.83 seconds. The women's javelin was won by Adriana Vilagos from Serbia with 65.60.
