TORCH TALK DAY 4: MONDO DUPLANTIS BREAKS HIS WORLD RECORD IN 6.25M; KEELY HODGKINSON FINALLY GETS HER GOLD; VAL ALLMAN DEFENDS HER TITLE + FAITH KIPYEGON DQ CONTROVERSY | LIVE FROM PARIS

Day four of track and field at the Paris Olympics delivered! From Mondo Duplantis resetting his own world record (yet again) to the chaos of Faith Kipygeon being disqualified and later reinstated as the women’s 5000m silver medallist, today was a memorable one. In tonight’s edition of Torch Talk, we dive into all of the highlights from another action-packed day…

– Mondo Duplantis broke the pole vault world record for the ninth time in his career en route to winning his second straight Olympic gold in the event. Sam Kendricks took silver after clearing 5.95m, and Emmanouil Karalis finished in bronze with 5.90m.

– Beatrice Chebet took home Olympic gold in a chaotic women’s 5000m race in 14:28.56. After originally being DQed, Chebet’s countrywoman Faith Kipyegon took silver and Dutchwoman Sifan Hassan won bronze in the first of her three finals at these Games.

– Keely Hodgkinson won the women's 800m crown with her time of 1:56.72. She is the 3rd British woman to claim this title. 2023 World Champion Mary Moraa took bronze, and Tsige Duguma won Ethiopia's first ever Olympic 800m medal with her silver.

–Valarie Allman won her second straight Olympic gold in the women's discus with a best mark of 69.50m. Allman is one of only three women in history to successfully defend her Olympic title in this event. Bin Feng of China took silver and Sandra Elkasevic of Croatia took bronze.
