The pole vault gold medalist at the World Indoor Championships in Toruń, Poland, looks very embarrassed when he hears that his gesture has been captured on camera.

"It's very unpleasant, forgive me. That wasn't the intention," said Armand Duplantis.

I forgot I did it, but it was just for Kurtis Marschall's coach, just for fun. Nothing else. You don't have to post the picture; I'm not going to anyway. But whatever, I don't care.

Duplantis celebrated the end of the indoor season with his pole vaulting buddies on Saturday.

It was a fun evening with the guys.

Now he longs to get out.

I need to get some sun. I'm very pale right now.
