In the field of track and field, Duplantis' record-breaking record is not even news. Counting the new one released on the 20th, he has broken the men's pole vault world record eight times since 2020.

However, after breaking another record in the opening match of the World Athletics Diamond League in Xiamen on the 20th, Duplantis said: This time it was a bit unplanned.

html On April 20, Swedish player Duplantis took a group photo with the scoreboard showing the new world record after the game. It was definitely a bit unplanned. I know I'm in good shape, I know I can jump high, but breaking a record is something that requires all the conditions to be perfect. "After the game, Duplantis said in an interview, "And today everything was perfect. "

html On the 20th, the Swedes' opponents included Olympic runner-up and American player Nelson, this year's world's third best result creator, American player Hendricks, and Chinese player Huang Bokai, etc. But like many previous competitions, after jumping 6 meters , Duplantis locked the championship early. After a short wait, the audience burst out in shock - Duplantis decided to directly raise the bar by 24 centimeters, which was higher than the original world record held by himself. 1 centimeter higher.

Looking back on his decision, Duplantis didn’t think it was a risk: “After crossing 6 meters, I really wanted to try because there is a (record-breaking) possibility today. Traveling long distances also makes me unsure if I'm going to get tired, so the fewer jumps I try, the better chance I have of breaking the record. "

He also revealed that he could not beat the performance in the competition during training: "What I need is the encouragement of the audience, and the atmosphere at the scene today is really great. Everything is ready, just to see if I want to jump. "

Then, with one success, the Swedes set a world record in Xiamen.

"I heard people on the track cheering for my (about to challenge) record, which gave me the strength to complete the next step. "Duplantis said when looking back on that jump. In addition, the Egret Stadium, where the event was held, was also called "the perfect venue for pole vaulting" by him: "The conditions of the venue are great, it blocks the wind, and when there is wind, we hold the pole It's going to be unstable and we're barely feeling any wind today. "

This is the first time for the 24-year-old Duplantis to come to China to compete. He can't wait to express his expectations for the next time: "I already have a good resonance with Xiamen, so I hope this won't be me Being here for the last time, I think I will keep coming back for many, many years to come. "

Duplantis has signed up to participate in the next stop of the Diamond League, which will be held at the Suzhou Olympic Sports Center Stadium on the 27th. "I am very excited to participate in another game in China, that is really cool. "
