Mondo Duplantis: The key stats and figures behind the pole vault world record holder’s career

To quote Will Ferrell’s iconic character Mugatu in the 2001 classic Zoolander, Armand ‘Mondo’ Duplantis is so hot right now.

In truth, the American-born Swede has been one of the biggest names in athletics for the last four years, starting in 2020 when the 24-year-old set his first world record (more on that below).

Thanks to his unique backstory, quirky personality and undeniable talent, Duplantis has quite literally taken pole vaulting to new heights.

After successfully defending his title at the World Athletics Indoor Championships Glasgow 24 in March, Duplantis now embarks on a new quest to earn a fourth successive Diamond League title as he continues to chase Renaud Lavillenie‘s series record of seven.

Ahead of the start of the 2024 Wanda Diamond League season opener in Xiamen, People’s Republic of China this Saturday (20 April), here is a collection of Duplantis’ most impressive statistics in his young career to date.
