Competing on home turf, Duplantis initially aimed to surpass his own world record of 6.31 meters but faced unexpected challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The Olympic gold medalist struggled to reach six meters, ultimately finishing second. Marschall clinched the victory with a 5.90-meter clearance, proving his mettle in a tightly contested event. Duplantis, reflecting on the upset, acknowledged the significance of losing in front of a hometown crowd for the first time in over 40 meets.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the competition, Duplantis&#8217; focus appeared divided, possibly due to personal events like his impending wedding. Meanwhile, the Diamond League also saw Melissa Jefferson Wooden win the women&#8217;s 100m in 10.84 seconds, Kenny Bednarek dominate the men&#8217;s 200m, and Cooper Lutkenhaus mark a season best in the 800m.<\/p>\n<p>(With inputs from agencies.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a dramatic turn of events at the Stockholm Diamond League, Australia&#8217;s Kurtis Marschall dethroned Olympic pole vault&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":102569,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[83],"tags":[52463,52215,39052,52284,52217,52462,52253,52461,131,38256,132,33645],"class_list":["post-102568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-stockholm","tag-100-meters","tag-armand-duplantis","tag-cooper-lutkenhaus","tag-kenny-bednarek","tag-kurtis-marschall","tag-melissa-jefferson","tag-pole-vault","tag-sports-upset","tag-stockholm","tag-stockholm-diamond-league","tag-sweden","tag-world-record"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@dk\/116714070827170564","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102568"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102568\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
