Duplantis Beats Warholm in Zurich Exhibition Race

Pole vault champion Armand 'Mondo' Duplantis triumphed over 400m hurdles world record holder Karsten Warholm in a 100m exhibition race at the Zurich Diamond League meet. Duplantis clocked 10.37 seconds, while Warholm finished in 10.47 seconds, both achieving personal bests. The race idea stemmed from friendly banter and showcased their athletic versatility. Duplantis, already renowned for breaking the pole vault world record ten times, added another layer to his prowess. Warholm, unfortunately, tweaked his hamstring during the race, leading to his withdrawal from the 400m hurdles event, much to fans' disappointment. The exhibition highlighted both athletes' competitive spirits and camaraderie.
