21 August 2024 at 19:37 Sondre Guttormsen with the year’s best – may have sustained an injury Sondre Guttormsen delivered the year’s best in the pole vault competition in front of the train station in Lausanne, Switzerland, on Wednesday. The 25-year-old made no mistakes as he cleared 5.35, 5.62, 5.72 and 5.82. With 5.82, he took the year’s best. His previous best mark this season was 5.80 from the Olympic final in Paris. With that, Guttormsen fulfills the WC requirement for next year’s championship in Tokyo. He tried his hand at the height of 5.92, where he broke the first two attempts. He then aborted the last attempt. Sondre Guttormsen tells news that he felt a cramp on the front of his right thigh on the last attempt of 5.92 metres. – We treat all injuries as if they were major, but it is a bit difficult to say yet. I managed to go back, says Guttormsen. He is traveling home to Norway on Thursday, and says he will probably take an MRI examination to find out the status. He is very satisfied with the shared 3rd place. – They are the same ones who were there in the Olympics, maybe even a couple more. In March 2023, Sondre Guttormsen made history as the first Norwegian over 6.00 meters in the pole vault. It is still the Norwegian pole vault record. The early favorite and recent Olympic champion, Armand Duplantis, won the competition when he cleared 6.00 meters on his first attempt.
