Athletics World Championships: Tamberi, in the blue jersey I transform myself

(ANSA) – ROME, JULY 14 – The spotlights of the upcoming world of athletics in the US are the best cure for the torments that plagued the first part of Gianmarco Tamberi’s summer. The high jump Olympian feels the adrenaline of the eve and comes back on, a few hours after his debut on the Hayward Field platform.

“With the blue shirt on, I transform myself – Gimbo said at the press conference – and I no longer feel anything, not even the annoyance that has accompanied me in these weeks in the deadlift leg. What is it? In short, it is the irritation of a nerve of the rectus femoris: like a pin, which prevents me from being relaxed. But I will not think about it, by now I have accepted the pain, I just want to concentrate on my jump, without thinking about anything else “. Tomorrow, at 7:10 pm Italian time (10.10 am on the Pacific coast) the blue captain will jump to realize the only dream that has not yet come true: world outdoor gold in the high.

To solve his physical problem “I did everything, including moving the departure for the United States, and I have to thank the Federation for supporting me – said Tamberi – It all emerged in Ostrava, when I jumped 2.30, and today I feel stronger than in that race “. (HANDLE).
