On the kilometer, a discipline in which he competed for the first time at the World Championships, he beat his compatriot and three-time defending champion Jeffrey Hoogland.

World track championships, Jonathan Milan’s disbelief
World Track Championships, Jonathan Milan’s disbelief
Soì the newly crowned world champion in track pursuit, Jonathan Milan, who also set a new world record at the world championships in Denmark: “An evening of celebration? No, this performance deserves much more”.
“We didn’t get distracted by Charlton’s world record this morning,” added the Friulian before taking the podium, “we just tried to stick to the schedule we had set for ourselves and things went great”.
“Right from qualifying I tried to give it my all,” he added, “Before the final I wasnì t so sure I could do it. Charlton’s time was incredible and I’m still in disbelief that I beat him. I only thought about the track and the table we had given ourselves with Villa. I may have started too strong but at that point I couldn’t slow down and pushed to the end. I wasn't thinking about breaking the record, in the sense that it wasn't the primary goal. When you are in the finals you think about bringing home the gold. Toò against such an opponent I had to do something outstanding.”
Satisfied, and even moved, Italian coach Marco Villa: “In addition to tonight’s performance, about which there’è little to say, Jonathan’s merit è was consistency. He è approached these specialtiesà of the track having in front of him a phenomenon like Filippo Ganna; an internal rivalry that pushed both of them to an exceptional level, so much so that we have two athletes capable of breaking the wall of 4′ in the pursuit”.
