Turning your back on Merica is fricked up and might cost him marketing $ in long run

Mondo has deals with Puma and Omega right now. He just got a bonus from Puma for the World Record. He’s not costing himself any dollars. He broke the World Record at 20 just months after deciding to become a PRO. I think his path decision has been solid so far.
I think that winning a Gold Medal for the USA is a possibility one day. His Olympic career as a vaulter will carry him thru at least 3 Games.

honestly I wouldnt be surprised to see him switch back to the states if he gets gold this cycle. his legacy/advertising potential would pretty much be cemented at that point.

He already has sponsors, how much more pole vaulting marketing money do you think there is to go around?
