Gianmarco Tamberi was in a Paris hospital on a drip just hours before he is due to defend his Olympic high jump title, his wife Chiara Bontempi said Saturday afternoon.
    The Marche born athlete, 32, had a new attack of renal colic this morning.
    "You are writing me in many, the situation is this," she wrote on a photo showing the Tokyo Olympic champ with a drip.
    "We are in hospital." Earlier, she had written dejectedly, "I don't know what to say."
