Jaydon Hibbert celebrates his triple jump win at the World Athletics Under 20 Championships Cali 22. One jump was all it took for Jamaica’s Jaydon Hibbert to break the championship record in the first round of the final, to claim the triple jump crown in superb style on the penultimate day of the World Athletics Under 20 Championships Cali 22.
This World Under 20 Championships title is a major boost in young Hibbert’s career since the 17-year-old jumper secured silver at the last edition of the games held in Nairobi and was a favourite to go one better in Cali. However, the manner in which he did that left him stunned. After landing in the sand, he leaped straight back up and glanced at the pit, grabbing his head in shock as he saw how far he had jumped. Collapsing to the track, still with his head in his hands, he waited for the measurement. When it showed a 17.27m championship record he was overcome with emotion.
