Lavillenie I

A word about the work

The pole vaulter, the world record holder, has advanced the start of his summer season to compete at the Texas Relays in Austin. A competition known for its big performances.

For 5 years, the United States is the destination of Renaud Lavillenie for his spring internship. Before, it was San Diego, the Californian beaches and the surfing hours in the ocean.

Having just landed in Austin, Renaud won the Texas Relays on March 31, before 30000 spectators. By passing each of his jumps on the first try, up to 5.92 meters, the Frenchman dominates the Canadian Shawn Barber, 2015 world champion, and the young Swede Armand Duplantis who also signed a bar at 5.92 m.

He is also a Charentais born at the end of September 1986. If I opted for a sport career in discretion, Renaud has preferred to become record holder in the world of pole vault.
