PARIS, France — Heartbreak in the pole vault pit.
In a night of incredible feats at the Stade de France Monday, EJ Obiena tried to come up with something of his own but ended up empty, with his last clean vault good for just fourth place.
Long before the night ended in the grand stadium, Mr. Obiena was confined down the floor, oblivious from the crowd of over 80,000 letting out a deafening roar as Armand “Mondo” Duplantis flew to the night sky for a record feat.
Pole vault is Mondo’s world.
