Armand Duplantis

Why that face? America can get athletes with no American parents, if you're good and live in US on PR or visa they'll give you the fast track to citizenship, this is common.

Which ones the only I can think of is Embiid and he really don’t even count

 

[Bigwhite2498]

And they'll then go on to rep their home country in Os, so what're you saying?

He on Bs breh

[Kunty McPhuck]

Lol. New year, new rules New PAWG sheriff in town

 

[King Static X]

Diamond league is on BBC, most diamond league events are in europe
Track and field is very close to the top sport in Norway, Sweden, and Finland.

Sure, but he would get many endorsements and commercials here in America. He would be a superstar.

 

[Roid Jones]

Duplantis is nuts

 

[Phitz]

And they'll then go on to rep their home country in Os, so what're you saying?

as a pole vaulter?

Come on breh

is ryan crouser getting it?

Mondo does promotions and modeling for numerous mainstream Swedish magazines and also high end brands like Omega. He is also constantly on Swedish talk shows. I can’t think of many American track athletes getting that kind of consistent high profile recognition especially outside of an Olympic year.

Grant Fisher grew up in America. Brett Hull has an American mother (so a dual citizen from birth) and spent part of his childhood in America.

 

[Don'tCallMeLuckyB]

Quick to up the pole like Duplantis

 

[TheFryingDutchman]

We need brehs on this volleyball team.

We never have brehs on the team. There's a few brehettes on the women side but I can't remember seeing more than one breh on the national team in my life.
