Wojciechowski was able to clear 5.87 meters in the men’s pole vault on his second try, which was a new season best for him. He finished in fourth place, right behind Olympic gold medalist Thiago Braz (third), Mondo Duplantis (second), and fellow Polish pole vaulter Piotr Lisek, who won first place by clearing 6.02 meters. That clearance was a new national record for Poland.

Earlier this year, in March, as Digital Journal reported, Wojciechowski won the men’s pole vault at the 2019 European Indoor Championships in Glasgow with an indoor personal best of 5.90 meters.
