Mondo Wins Diamond League Title: Sweden’s star Po Walter Armand ‘Mondo’ Duplantis made history in the Diamond League final in Zurich on Wednesday. Although he could not make a new world record this time, but he proved his superiority by winning the title of Poll Walt for the fifth consecutive time.

Zurich not seen in rhythm
 
Recently, in Budapest, Duplanis crossed 6.29 meters and set a world record for the 13th time, but he did not appear in full rhythm in Zurich. Despite this, he crossed 5.50 meters, 5.80 m, 5.90 meters and 6.00 meters in the first attempt. At 6.10 meters, he failed all three attempts and could not make a new record.

Other players who enhanced the thrill of this event were Greece’s Emmanuel Karralis, who crossed 6.00 meters in his third attempt. Karlis won a bronze medal in the Olympics last year and this time he finished second. At the same time, Sam Candrix of America, who is the silver winner of the Paris Olympics, could not cross the height of 6.00 meters and got out of the competition. He had earlier crossed 5.80 and 5.90 meters and finished third.

Duplantis won five Diamond League titles

Duplantis has won five Diamond League titles so far in her brilliant career. This achievement takes them closer to the legendary players of this competition. They are now behind only Renod Lavillee and Christian Taylor, whose names are recorded seven titles.

After the competition, Duplanis said that I am also a human being, cannot break the world record every day. Sometimes you feel good, sometimes normal. Today was the day between the two. Still I love such street events. It is a matter of pride for me to win the fifth Diamond Trophy.

In the women’s pole vault event, American player Katie Moon defeated his compatriot Sandy Morris while performing brilliantly. Moon won the title by crossing a height of 4.82 meters, which is his second Diamond League Trophy. This victory is special for her because she will go to the World Championship to be held in Tokyo next month to protect her title.

This match in Zurich once again proved that the duplication of duplication is maintained in the pole vault, while Moon is also moving firmly in the women’s category.
