Immediately after the victory, Tamberi shows a sign with the words “Who is back?” in front of the cameras, before letting himself go to somersaults and celebrations. The champion then reaches his wife Chiara in the stands, who is holding their one-year-old daughter Camilla. “She certainly couldn’t see her dad getting slapped,” jokes the athlete, emotionally recounting the moment.
The celebration becomes even more special thanks to the all-Italian and international podium: alongside Tamberi on the podium are his compatriot Matteo Sioli, bronze medalist, and the Ukrainian Oleh Doroshchuk, protagonist of the duel with the Italian.
