Duplantis was challenged by a strong field of competitors. Greece's Emmanouil Karalis finished in a commendable second place, clearing the bar at 6.00m. The battle for the bronze medal saw a tie, with both the Netherlands' Menno Vloon and Australia's Kurtis Marschall sharing third place after both successfully clearing 5.90m.
The result reinforces Duplantis's position as the undisputed best pole vaulter in the world, with his consistent high-level performances setting him apart from the rest of the field.
