Duplantis 'grinds' for gold as stellar trio headline electrifying world indoors
Duplantis was pushed all the way by Greece's Emmanouil Karalis in a battle royale before bagging a third world indoor pole vault gold with a best of 6.15m.
"We put on a good show for everybody," said Duplantis. "It's great to be pushed and I'm happy for Manolo (Karalis). I had to grind for it tonight.
"It's good for me especially and it's just great competition. It's just such a higher level than what pole vault's ever been, so it's good. You just have to want it."
It was a truly pulsating competition...
