2020 Tokyo high jump champ Gianmarco Tamberi said Wednesday he may take part in Los Angeles 2028, when he will be 36. Speaking in a lectio magistralis at the University of Urbino which awarded him an honorary degree in Sports Sciences, Gimbo said: “I did all the math on the probability that I would have of winning the Olympics in Los Angeles and I am very clear about what it would mean for me on an emotional level even just to try after everything I have been through”.
After ill-health-related failure in Paris this year, the Marche athlete had aired the possibility of retiring, without however expressing a definitive opinion on the possible participation in Los Angeles.
