2019 World Championships Statistics - Men’s PV by K Ken Nakamura The records to look for in Doha: 1) Lavillenie, if he wins, will be the first Frenchman to win this event. He will then have gold at all major championships, Worlds, Olympics, World Indoor and European. He will also be the second (after Tarasov) to have complete set of medals. 2) If Duplantis wins either gold or silver, it will be the best medal for SWE.
