The article reviews the events from the second day of the championships in Torun, focusing on notable performances by athletes Armand Duplantis and Simon Ehammer.

The article discusses the second day of the World Indoor Championships held in Torun, with on-site commentary from journalist Olli Kivioja and expert Lauri Hollo. One of the highlights was the performance of Swedish pole vaulter Armand Duplantis, who was expected to potentially break records but concluded his event with a clearance of 625 cm.
