Pole vault superstar Mondo Duplantis will compete at the Wanda Diamond League meeting in Paris on July 7th, just a few weeks before he defends his Olympic title in the French capital. <\/p>\n

Three years after his last appearance at the Stade Charl\u00e9ty, Duplantis returns to Meeting de Paris this summer to get in shape for Paris 2024 and continue his journey towards a fourth successive Diamond League title. <\/p>\n

The Swedish star has already started this season with a bang, breaking the world record for the eighth time in his career with a stunning 6.24m vault at the Wanda Diamond League season opener in Xiamen last month. <\/p>\n

A week later in Suzhou, he sailed over 6.00m before narrowly missing out on another world record at 6.25m.<\/p>\n

In Paris, he will be looking to go one better than the 6.01m meeting record he set back in 2021 and, if conditions are right, attack the world record head on once again. <\/p>\n

The Meeting de Paris is the eighth leg of the 2024 Wanda Diamond League, and an important step on the Road to the Final in athletics’ premier one-day meeting series. With some of track and field’s biggest names expected at the Stade Charl\u00e9ty, it also provides a perfect dress rehearsal for the biggest stage of all a few weeks later. <\/p>\n

The Wanda Diamond League is the premier one-day meeting series in athletics. It comprises 15 of the most prestigious events in global track and field. Athletes compete for points at the 14 series meetings in a bid to qualify for the two-day Wanda Diamond League Final in Brussels on 13th-14th September.<\/p>\n
