Armand Duplantis

At the Diamond League in Silesia, Poland—one of the final major events of the outdoor track and field season—Duplantis set a new world record with a vault of 6.26 meters, surpassing his previous mark of 6.25 meters. This achievement came 20 days after winning gold and setting a world record at the Paris Olympics.

Emmanouil Karalis became the first Greek to soar over 6 meters in the men's pole vault Sunday.

The Greek Olympic Committee selected Karalis after he won the bronze medal in Paris with a jump of 5.90 meters.

Earlier, gold medalist Miltiadis Tentoglou had expressed his desire to carry the Greek flag at the Los Angeles Olympic Games.

It should be noted that at the opening ceremony, the flag bearers were Giannis Antetokounmpo and Antigoni Ntrismpioti.

Yusuf Dikeç may have an Olympic medal and a legion of adoring online fans, but the Turkish pistol sharpshooter is aiming to keep his feet on the ground.

Shots of the athlete cocking his pistol with nonchalance, his silver medal in Paris earned with his off hand in his pocket and no protective glasses or headphones, went viral around the world.

Mondo Duplantis is undoubtedly one of the standout figures of the Olympic Games.

Emmanuel Karalis now holds his first Olympic medal.

With a jump of 5.90 meters, the Greek champion won the bronze medal in pole vault, making history in Paris. On Tuesday afternoon, the medal ceremony took place, and Emmanuel Karalis received his medal!

Mondo Duplantis wrote another golden page in pole vault history on Monday night as he broke the world record for the 9th time with his jump of 6.25m, which earned him the gold medal in this year’s Olympic Games final.

The 24-year-old Greek high jumper surpassed 5.85 meters to claim the bronze medal behind Mondo Duplantis (gold with 6.05 meters) and Sam Kendricks (silver with 5.90 meters)
