Watch men’s pole vault final live streams to see whether the awesome Armand Duplantis can break his own world record for an astonishing 14th time. Below we have worldwide information on the men’s pole vault final at the World Athletics Championships 2025 TV channels, broadcasters and how to watch the final for FREE.
Even men’s athletics greats like Usain Bolt, Michael Johnson and Jan Železný could hardly have been more odds on to win World Athletics Championship gold than Duplantis is in Tokyo this year. Mondo’s domination of the event stretches back all the way to his first world record and Olympic gold medal in 2020, and a third world title is about as sure a bet as you can get at elite-level sport.
Monday’s final is going to be more about whether Duplantis can take history’s highest vault to the 6.30m mark and beyond. But that won’t stop the likes of Greece’s Emmanouil Karalis from trying to cause an upset – he has the next best jump in the world this year and came runner-up to Mondo at the World Indoors in Nanjing.
