BUDAPEST, Aug 22 (Reuters) - Italy's Olympic champion Gianmarco Tamberi captured his first world high jump title on Tuesday, in a dramatic finish against young American JuVaughn Harrison. Tamberi, who famously shared the Olympic title with three-time world champion Mutaz Barshim of Qatar, cleared 2.36 metres for gold. He missed at one attempt at 2.40 and then called it a night, his victory secured. The 24-year-old Harrison also cleared 2.36 but had more misses on the countback, and so took silver for his first senior global medal.
