Biography

The medals of some of the athletics world championship races in 2009 were otherwise awarded on 24 March 2016 as a result of doping disqualifications. Among these reallocations also the medals of 20 km walk, which saw the Italian Giorgio Rubino, initially 4th, get the bronze medal This fact, 7 years after the event, allowed Italy to clear the zero in the Medal table.[2] He also has won other four medals, three of these at senior level, in international competitions,[3] and is a five-time winner at the Italian Championships.[4][5]
