In July, the plan was that Jakob Ingebrigsten would be matched against the British Kerr in a high jump duel under the Diamond League gala in Oregon, USA. Now, Ingebrigsten reveals that the duel risks not taking place due to a health injury.

The development in recent times has been rising. I have as a goal to be 100 percent but must at the same time be on my guard, says the superstar.

Furthermore, the Norwegian reports that he focuses hard on his training and increases the load quite a bit day by day. The big goal with the recovery is still the World Championship in Tokyo in September.

24-year-old Ingebrigsten has been injured since the spring.
