Giovanni Evangelisti (born 11 September 1961 in Rimini ) is a retired long jumper from Italy . His greatest achievements were the Olympic bronze medal in 1984 and three World Indoor bronze medals. He finished fourth at the 1988 Olympics .
Biography [ edit ]
Despite his records, he is best remembered for the scandal that occurred during the 1987 World Championships . In the long jump final, home officials gave a forged measurement for one of Evangelisti's jumps - recording it as 8.37m instead of 7.85m - which resulted in him winning the bronze medal.
Though initially successful, the scam was eventually exposed by Sandro Donati [1] and others, resulting in Evangelisti relinquishing his medal. Larry Myricks of the United States was instated as the rightful bronze medalist nine months later.[2] [3] [4]
He won 11 medals (nine of them bronze), at the International athletics competitions .[5] His personal best jump was 8.43 metres, achieved in San Giovanni Valdarno on 16 May 1987. This stood as the Italian record until 2007 , when Andrew Howe jumped 8.47. He has 59 caps in national team from 1982 to 1994.[6]
