This a new program on the Wanda Diamond League. This Call room was focused on the Stockholm Diamond League meeting. The program featured Mondo Duplantis and Karsten Warholm, two of the sport’s biggest stars.
Mondo Duplantis is the world record holder in the pole vault (6.17m on 2/8/20 and 6.18m on 2/15/20). He set it two times in the 2020 Indoor season, and he is looking to jump even higher in 2020. Mondo is 2018 European Champion and 2019 Doha WC silver medalist.
Karsten Warholm is the 2017 and 2019 WC as well as 2018 European champion at the 400m hurdles.
Warholm has gone 46.92 in the 400m hurdles, the European record.
Both Mondo and Karsten are comfortable with the media, and their talent and style make them quite popular with athletic fans.
