Medal record

He won the 2021 Diamond League crown, becoming the first ever Italian to do so,[6] and repeated this in 2022.[7]

Career Edit

 
Gold medal shared at Tokyo 2020

Until 2022 Tamberi was coached by his father, Marco Tamberi, who held the indoor Italian record in 1983 with a height of 2.28 m.[8]

In 2015, Tamberi broke the Italian high jump record twice—first with a jump of 2.34 m in Cologne, and second with a 2.37 m in Eberstadt, where he was second behind Derek Drouin. He later finished 8th at the 2015 World Championships in Beijing with a clearance of 2.25 m.

During winter 2016, Tamberi won every contest he participated at. He won in Banska Bystrica with 2.35 m, a new Italian indoor record, equalled by Marco Fassinotti in the same event. He won in Trinec after clearing 2.33 m. At the 2016 High Jump Moravia Tour, he recorded a jump of 2.38 m, enough to beat Chris Baker of Great Britain and Kyriakos Ioannou of Cyprus, and which gave him the Italian indoor high jump record. He won a gold medal at the World Indoor Championships in Portland in March 2016 with a jump of 2.36 m.

Tamberi was unable to compete at the 2016 Olympics due to an injury earlier in the season.

At major competitions, he is known for sporting a full beard during qualification and shaving half of it for the final.[9]

On 1 August 2021, he along with Qatari athlete Mutaz Essa Barshim were declared tied winners of the men's high jump at the 2020 Summer Olympics after a tie between both of them as they cleared 2.37m.[10] Both Tamberi and Barshim agreed to share the gold medal in a rare instance in Olympic history where the athletes of different nations agreed to share the same medal.[11][12] After the failed jumps Barshim asked the referee "Can we have two golds?" and when hearing the answer was yes, embracing Tamberi saying "History, my friend".[13][14]

At the 2022 NBA Celebrity All-Star Game, Tamberi appeared on Dominique Wilkins's team, and made a putback dunk.[15] He was the first high jump champion to appear in the Celebrity Game.[16]

Tamberi won the gold medal at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest, besting America's JuVaughn Harrison on a countback after both cleared the same 2.36 metres height.[5]

Tamberi is known for competing with a half shaven face.[17]
