Miltos Tentoglou “flies” at 8.41m recording world lead long jump in Poland

The Greek champion, after claiming the first spot in Gothenburg a few days ago with a jump of 8.12m, won the Copernicus Cup in the city of Torun, Poland with a jump of 8.40 (beating the 8.21m of American Jeremiah Davis, while also taking the match record from Juan Miguel Echevarria which was 8.12m from 2019) and showed that he is on course to also break the pan-Hellenic indoor record that he has held since last year (with a performance of 8.55m that he did in Belgrade).
