World Athletics Indoor C'ships: Duplantis Retains Pole Vault Title In Glasgow
World Athletics Indoor Championships: Olympic and world champion Armand Duplantis made a successful defence of his pole vault title at the World Athletics Indoor Championships, clearing a world-leading 6.05m.
Having skipped at 5.75m, Duplantis returned to the fray after a period of almost 20 minutes and he seemed to have lost his focus as failing twice to clear at 5.85.
He found the way to progress, however. A first failure at 5.95m created another pressure point for him to negotiate – but he responded like the champion in his second effort, marking the clearance with a surge of energy.
