Biography

Delryd was raised in Sätra, a suburb of Stockholm, Sweden.[2] He had his breakout in the 2018 indoor athletics season, where he jumped 2.26 metres at the Täby Vinterspel meeting.[1] He followed that up with a 2.33 metre jump outdoors, at the time the number 2 performance of the year to date.[1]

Delryd's 2018 season best was higher than all of the 2018 European Athletics Championships finalists' bests at the time of competition, but he could not attend the meet due to injury. Starting in late 2018, Delryd was plagued with multiple issues -- first with a tendon injury and hamstring inflammation, and then with a malfunctioning jumping foot.[4][5]

In 2021, Delryd won his first outdoor national title at the 2021 Swedish Athletics Championships with a mark of 2.20 metres.[1]
