It seems like we see this headline almost every few months, and it looked like he could have cleared by a large margin.

What is the usual "peak" of a pole vaulter, because Mondo seems to still be ascending.

It always interesting to me, especially in Olympic sports, how one person can be this much more dominant than everyone else.

We've seen it over the last couple decades with Phelps, Bolt and Ledecky, and now with Mondo. It's just crazy to me because, other than Bolt, it's not like any of the other three look physically dominant than their competition, but then it's like they are playing a whole different sport from the rest.
