Qatar's Mutaz Essa Barshim and Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi shared the gold medal in the men's high jump at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics on Sunday.
All three medalists cleared the 2.37 meter mark in the final. Maksim Nedasekau of Belarus had more failed attempts and therefore won bronze. He set a national record at that height.
Neither Barshim nor Tamberi had a failed attempt until 2.39 meters, which is the Olympic record. When they couldn't clear the mark, an official came over to talk about going forward with a jump-off to determine gold. One asked if they had to go to a jump-off and the broadcast showed the celebration with later clarification they would tie.
