It’s wandering around Mundo Duplants.
After the premiere in Doha was forced to move indoors due to strong winds, the second competition day of the year in Eugene has now been moved up to a full day for the same reason.
Thus, Swedish television viewers miss Duplante’s attempt to set a new record.
There is a lot of applause at the high altitude in the pole vault. Weather is definitely one of those factors.
And at the moment, there is no flow of racquetball in the world. Their premiere in Doha was canceled at short notice and they moved to an indoor competition the next day due to unusually strong winds.
Immediately after this race, Duplantis traveled to the United States to recharge for the weatherproof races in Eugene. But even that sounds like something of a meltdown.
Late yesterday US time, it was decided to move Saturday’s pole vault competition at the main party to Friday night local time.
“Everyone is happy”
The Saturday celebration seems to be surrounded by rain and really strong winds, which makes pole vaulting dangerous. Friday doesn’t seem to offer dreamy weather, but there will likely be a break and a calmer wind.
“All the jumpers were happy to make this change if the weather was what they thought Saturday,” Mondo manager Stina Funk wrote in a text message.
In addition to the 10,000m races already planned, the women’s discus throw and the height are also moved to Friday’s competitions.
One of the sad consequences of this move is that Swedish television viewers seem to miss Duplante’s new record-hunting journey. On the other hand, the competition will be decided starting from 4:00 pm until Saturday Sweden time, on the other hand, broadcasting company CMore does not have any broadcasts from there planned at the moment.
