The Swedish Armand Dualntis, 25, broke the world record of the rod, on Tuesday (12) in Budapest. It raised the brand in an inch, reaching 6.29 m.
It was the 13th time that ‘Mondo’ Doubling hit the record, the third in 2025. He had already registered 6.27 m in Clermont-Ferrand, in February, and 6.28 m in Stockholm in June. Now the 6.29 m bar has been surpassed in the second attempt.
Since the previous break of the record, Douter had chained three wins in six meters (6.13 m in Ostrava, 6 m in Eugene and 6.05 m in Monaco).
On Tuesday, the Swedish secured victory at Hungary Grand Prix by overcoming the 6.11 m bar in his first attempt, defeating Greek Emmanouil Karalis (6.02 m) and Australian Kurtis Marschall (5.83 m).
In her second attempt at 6.29 m, Doubtis touched the bar with one leg and belly, but she remained on the brackets, and the jump was validated.
Durse is the great favorite of his modality at the Athletics World Cup, which will take place from September 13 to 21, in Tokyo. He will seek the three -time championship in the outdoor dispute.
