Armand Duplantis secured his fourth straight indoor world gold in pole vault in Toruń, Poland, after a historic final where Greek Emmanouil Karalis pushed him to a 6.25m jump. It was the best pole vault final in a championship ever, but Duplantis was too tired for a world record attempt. “Grymt kul att ha lite press,” he said.
Pole vault star Armand Duplantis married Desiré Inglander secretly at Stockholm City Hall on March 7. The couple plans a larger ceremony in Cannes in June. Duplantis calls himself 'half-married' until he gets the ring.
