Duplantis, without world record in Battocletti and Marileidy Paulino's recital

Armand Duplantis claimed victory at the Silesia Diamond League in Poland with a clearance of 6.20 meters, but the Swedish pole vault star fell short of breaking his own world record. Three days after an attempt in Lausanne, Duplantis ordered the bar set at 6.32 meters after securing the win, but ultimately decided not to proceed after one try. His winning height was significantly higher than that of second-place finishers, Norway's Sondre Guttormsen and Greece's Emmanouil Karalis, who both cleared 6.00 meters.

Earlier in the competition, Dominican Republic's Marileidy Paulino, the reigning Olympic and world champion in the women's 400 meters, delivered a commanding performance. She won the race in 48.87 seconds, solidifying her status as a top contender this season. Paulino's time was well ahead of Jamaica's Nicking Pryce (49.49) and Bahrain's Salwa Eid Naser (49.57).

Italian runner Nadia Battocletti continued her strong form by winning the women's 5,000 meters in 14:54.09, adding to her recent European Championship golds. In the men's 400-meter hurdles, Brazil's Alison dos Santos set the world's best mark for the year with a winning time of 46.43 seconds, narrowly defeating Norway's Karsten Warholm. The event also saw Lithuania's Mykolas Alekna achieve a notable performance in the shot put.
