The blue had returned from a good 6”56 in qualifying: he became the protagonist of a false start. Nick Ponzio sets the Italian weight record. The Swede jumps to 6.19
Bad experience for Marcell Jacobs on the track of Belgrade that in 15 days I will host the Indoor World Cup. The organization of the meeting is questionable, general rehearsal of the world championship. After riding in drums in 6 ”56 (0 ”163 the reaction to the shot), the Olympic champion took a seat in the sixth lane for the final. After a false start reported mid-race, Jacobs was kicked out with a red card. The images of the departure (very awkward starter) were not repeated and a second red was shown at Turkish Ozer. In the blue house we are consoled with the new Italian record for Nick Ponzio’s weight, at 21.61.
Memorable evening for Armand Duplantis. The legendary Bubka still far away (he retouched the record 15 times), the 6 meter 20 hour wall just a step away: jumping 6 and 19 on his third attempt, the Swedish phenomenon beat his own pole vault world championship.
The impressive realized series: two leaps to 5.61 and 5.85, the past six meters as if they were the hedge of the house and then the new record. I think I have attempted this measure 50 times – explained Duplantis – and by now this was a personal challenge: I am happy to have won it.
