Regarded as the greatest pole vaulter of all time, Duplantis has already won every major gold available to him and has the most six-metre clearances in history.<\/p>\n

The two-time Olympic champion has claimed the past eight global men’s pole vault gold medals on offer across both indoor and outdoor competitions.<\/p>\n

Duplantis’ latest triumph in Japan extended his unbeaten streak to 37 competitions, a run of dominance stretching back to July 2023.<\/p>\n

He did so in front of a captivated audience in Tokyo, who remained in the stadium long after the night’s other events had concluded to watch his latest world record bid.<\/p>\n

The BBC World Sport Star of the Year was selected in a public vote.<\/p>\n

American athlete Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, Spain footballer Mariona Caldentey, American boxer Terence Crawford, Japanese baseball star Shohei Ohtani and Egypt footballer Mohamed Salah were the other contenders on the shortlist.<\/p>\n

In winning last year’s award<\/a>, Duplantis was chosen ahead of American gymnast Simone Biles, American basketball player Caitlin Clark, Swiss wheelchair racer Catherine Debrunner, Dutch athlete Sifan Hassan and French swimmer Leon Marchand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
