Pole Vault superstar Sweeden’s Armand  “Mundo” Duplantis continues to solidify his legacy among the greatest athletes in the modern era after breaking the world record for the 10th time to capture victory at the Silesia Diamond League on Sunday.

Duplantis was again in a league of his own, as he cleared the towering height of 6.26m, improving the previous world best by one cm to move his record-breaking tally into the double-digits.

It was the world record in weeks for the 24-year-old who had set the previous mark(6.26m) to win gold at the recently concluded Paris Olympics in France.
