Defending champion Gianmarco Tamberi has faced a challenging road to the men's high jump final at the Stade de France. The Italian star, who recently battled kidney stones and spent time in the hospital, continues to grapple with excruciating pain as he prepares for the competition.
Despite initially believing that his health issues had subsided, Tamberi revealed on Saturday that he was once again experiencing intense pain due to another kidney colic. This setback has left him uncertain about his ability to perform at his best during the final.
