Tokyo Olympics 2020: Barshim and Tamberi recorded a best clearance of 2.37 metres
Qatar's Mutaz Barshim added Olympic gold to his world title as he shared the title with Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi in an unusual finish to the men's high jump on Sunday. Fave moment of the Olympics so far. Barshim (Qatar) and Tamberi (Italy) were tied in the high-jump final. The official is there talking about a prospective jump-off, but Barshim asks immediately: "Can we have two golds?" One look, no words exchanged, they know they're sharing it. pic.twitter.com/E3SneYFocA Barshim and Tamberi recorded a best clearance of 2.37 metres while Maksim Nedasekau of Belarus also cleared that height to set a national record. Nedesekau though missed out on a share of the gold due to an earlier failure. For Barshim, 30, it completes a full house of Olympic medals having taken bronze in London in 2012 and silver in Rio five years ago.More Related News
