However, for Mondo Duplantis, the case was slightly different. The 25-year-old Swedish-American pole vaulter won his second consecutive gold medal at the quadrennial event held in Paris, breaking the world record in the pursuit.In a subsequent interview with Olympics.com in August 2024, Duplantis shared his feelings after winning the gold medal in Paris, saying:“When I was sitting on the back of the runway. I felt like I'd been there 1000 times because I've been visualizing this moment for such a long time. I've visualized and dreamt of this moment since I was just a little kid, like looking at the world record height at the Olympic final." "For it to actually happen, the way that it did, especially in that stadium with the most amazing crowd that I've ever been a part of, it’s kind of hard to beat. And I'm okay with that. I don't think I really need to beat it because it’s probably not really beatable," Duplantis added.Duplantis hopes to break the coveted 6.30m mark sooner rather than later. He is aiming for another gold medal at the World Championships, scheduled for Tokyo this year.
