The Mad Joy of Tamberi: "I Deserve It, To the Social Media Lions I Say..." And Bragagna Is Moved

What beauty. Gianmarco Tamberi has just spoken to Sky, hugged the reporter, and shared his emotions. Then it's Franco Bragagna's turn, the voice of athletics, who gets emotional: "But how do you handle this one? How?". True, very true. Bragagna's emotion is shared by all Italians at home witnessing Tamberi's feat. While he may have won more significant medals, this one, the way it was achieved, is truly unique. Some, Bragagna continues, were even mocking: "They said the ectoplasm of Tamberi is in the competition." Gimbo, who uses social media very well, has read certain comments and therefore has a thought for the haters as well: "When things go wrong on social media, there are those who try to destroy you. But I know my worth and what I do. I just needed to remember to believe in myself more." Exactly.
And so, here is Tamberi, with his half-shaved beard, phrases on his arm, and a smile more complete than ever: "What a relief, I deserve it because I never stop believing after two difficult years. This medal is a huge emotion, I never give up, I hit my head, I experience difficulties badly, and I never take a step back. When things go wrong, we forget about self-belief; if you're someone who has won a lot and then performs poorly, they try to destroy you. But I believe in what I do: in sleep, in the team, in therapies, in diet; I just needed to remember to believe in myself." He did just that: "I really wanted to give this joy to myself, to Chiara, and to Camilla. Believe me, I am truly very happy."
