Duplantis ready for Stefanidi

OSLO (NOR): After setting two world pole vault records the last indoor season, Armand Duplantis believes he can be even better next year. Talking on the Wanda Diamond League Callroom screened on Facebook and YouTube, he said: “It’s a bit of a shame because of how much of a roll I was getting on, but of course I understand the decision. Yeah I was jumping really well, but I kind of think: why not be even better next year?” He also has thrown down the gauntlet to fellow vaulter Katerina Stefanidi, telling the Wanda Diamond League Call Room that he is ready to go head to head with the Greek star in a gender-spanning lockdown showdown. Duplantis plans to arrive to Sweden next month.
