HISTORY MADE. Simon Ehammer goes where no one has before, 6,670 points in the heptathlon to break the WORLD RECORD at the #WorldIndoorChamps The mark eclipses Ashton Eaton’s 6,645 from 2011 and caps one of the greatest all-around performances we’ve ever seen. Pure dominance across all 7 events.

2.30m wasn’t enough to separate them, but countback was. 🇺🇦 Oleh Doroshchuk delivers under pressure, clearing 2.30m to win HIGH JUMP GOLD at the #WorldIndoorChamps, his first global title after finishing 4th a year ago. 🥈 Erick Portillo- 2.30m 🥉 Raymond Richards- 2.26m 🥉 Sanghyeok Woo- 2.26m

Keely Hodgkinson showed that she is the person to watch in Torun in the women's 800 meters. Audrey Werro looked very good. And congrats to Addy Wiley, the US champion, who shows focus and savvy racing skills. I believe Addy has a very good shot at the medal podium. And I love this photo, Addy was so happy winning the US champs (photo by Chuck Aragon) #addywiley, #adidas, #worldindoors

Cooper Lutkenhaus is in the final! The seventeen-year-old did not make a bad step in this race. Cooper moved up smartly and took over at the 600m in 1:16.29! Cooper Lutkenhaus ran 1:44.29, holding off Mohammed Attoui, who moved up from the very back, and Noah Kibet. Lutkenhaus is a medal contender.
