Sweden’s Armand Duplantis broke his own pole vault world record for the 15th time on Thursday with a jump of 6.31 metres.

The two-time Olympic gold champion cleared the height at the IFU Arena in Uppsala in the Mondo Classic – an indoor pole vault-only event in Sweden named after him.

Duplantis, 26, has increased the world record by the minimum one-centimetre margin on all 15 occasions he has broken it.

Before Duplantis’ run, the world record had been held by Renaud Lavillenie of France since he jumped 6.16m in 2014.
