Timeline
Sara Simeoni (born 19 April 1953) is an Italian former high jumper, who won a gold medal at the 1980 Summer Olympics and twice set a world record in the women's high jump.
Sara Simeoni was born in Rivoli Veronese, in the province of Verona.
She soon took up athletics, specialising in the high jump.
Her first international result was at the 1971 European Championships in Helsinki, where she ended 9th with a 178 cm jump.
Her first international success was at the 1976 in Montreal, where she won a silver medal, with a personal best of 1.91 m, and was beaten only by Rosemarie Ackermann's 1.93 m leap.
In August 1978, she set the new world record with 2.01 m in Brescia (this jump stood as a national record until Antonietta Di Martino jumped 2.02 in June 2007).
Later in the same month she equalled it at Prague while winning the European title.
Simeoni managed to reach the 2 meters measure for the first time since 1978.
The ageing Meyfarth, however, replied with a notable 2.02 m jump, and Simeoni won a silver medal.
Simeoni's other titles include two bronze medals at the European Championships and 25 national titles.
Her jump of 2.01 m was the Italian record for women for 29 years.
In 1980, Simeoni set a new Olympic record of 1.97 m, when winning gold in Moscow.
Simeoni was the only woman athlete not from a Communist country able to win an athletics gold medal in Moscow.
Simeoni struggled to regain her form in the following years, with a series of tendon injuries.
At 1984 Olympics, Simeoni carried the Italian flag at the opening ceremony in Los Angeles.
Here, she cemented her reputation as one of the greatest female high jumpers ever, in a thrilling duel with West German Ulrike Meyfarth.
Sara Simeoni is widely considered one of the best Italian female athletes ever.
Their son Roberto Azzaro is also a high jumper.
She won 25 national championships at individual senior level.
