MANILA, Philippines — EJ Obiena was at it again on Saturday with his latest feat in Sweden.

The Tokyo Olympian captured the gold medal in the 2021 Taby Stavhoppsgala Street Pole Vault in the Swedish capital of Stockholm.

Obiena triumphed after clearing 5.80 meters as he topped reigning Olympic champion Thiago Braz of Brazil and Andrew Irwin of USA, who finished second and third, respectively.

Both Braz and Irwin also reached 5.80m but Obiena took the gold due to fewest failed attempts.
