Athletics: Armand Duplantis failed to break the world record – won by a landslide

6.00 meters was enough to win the Diamond League gala in Paris.

Then it was time for the usual world record attempt of 6.25 for Armand Duplantis.

There was too much wind during the first attempt so Duplantis stopped before the jump. However, he chose to reset the clock and use up try one.

The Swede also failed on the second attempt, and he broke the bar on the last attempt. No new world record this time.

American Sam Kendricks was second in 5.95 and Thibaut Collet was third in 5.85.
