Armand 'Mondo' Duplantis is the Usain Bolt of pole vaulting. Half American, half Swedish, entirely brilliant, the 25-year-old's biggest competition is himself.

Bruce McAvaney joins us to break down an otherworldly athlete and how he's rightfully gaming the system. Featured: Bruce McAvaney, track and field commentator.
