RAISING THE BAR: The Story of Mondo & Antoine Duplantis | KATC Sports Presents

Good for them. Seems like Dad is raising some good kids.

Now that kid is a Olympic champion

[@delilahpuddingstash5592]

What awesome boys!

[@ashleymeggan]

Mondo now WR holder and honestly… pole vaulting in a way that is previously unseen. Jordan level, Usain Bolt, Simone Biles - true GOAT stuff. I’m just thinking about them this morning bc I’m trying to figure out how a family ever managed USTF/AAU track AND travel baseball. THREE D1 athletes. Forever LSU, Geaux Tigers.

[@BlackConnection337]

That is amazing.

[@tamoose1]

The poor third kid

[@ashleymeggan]

LMAO…

[@МарицаСамебелашвили]

Мондо

[@CaptainBenjamins]

So you’re selling me he was born in the US, raised in the US, trained in the US, goes to unversity in the US, qualified to represent the US, trained by his father who is an US pole vaulter but represents the country his mother was born in?

[@claire2088]

the swedish team were able to offer him more flexibility as an athlete I think, their athletics program is smaller so they could offer him a bespoke option (keep his dad as his coach etc) and he'd be almost guaranteed selection for the olympics etc (like he's obvs good enough for selection, but injuries etc can mess up the events someone might need to do to for selection)

NOPE. IM IN CHARGE
