Duplantis fatigued
LIEVIN (FRA): On attempting 619 in Lievin, Armand Duplantis admitted he was suffering from some fatigue having just broken the world record in Glasgow, informs L’Equipe. “I felt my legs abandoned me a bit and I didn’t have the same speed on the approach. On my attempts at 6.19m, I think the second attempt was the closest but again, I lacked the speed. I felt quite tired, Glasgow was only a few days ago,” he said. “I think by Sunday I will have discovered my energy. The All Star Perche is a good name for the event. It is the All Star Game in our event. It’s a cool place to jump. I don’t promise anything but I will advise you to watch!”
