Greek world champion long jumper Miltiadis Tentoglou became the first man to win four consecutive European titles in the competition by claiming gold at the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham on Tuesday with a best performance of 8.44 meters.

Miltiadis Tentoglou won his second straight Olympic gold medal in the long jump at the 2024 Paris Games.

Olympic champion Miltiadis Tentoglou won long jump gold at the World Athletics Indoor Championships Glasgow 2024 with his jump of 8.22 meters, and defended the title he won two years ago in Belgrade.
