Luca Toso

Luca Toso (born 15 February 1964) is a former Italian high jumper. He won two medals at the International athletics competitions.

Biography
He finished tenth at the 1983 World Championships and the 1985 World Indoor Games, thirteenth at the 1988 Olympic Games and eighth at the 1990 European Championships. At the Mediterranean Games he won silver medals in 1987 and 1991. He also competed at the 1987 World Championships without reaching the final.

Because of these results, Luca Toso was almost always punctual at the major international events in which he participated, hitting the final on five out of six occasions (two world championships, two Europeans and one Olympics), failing to make an appointment only for the 1987 outdoor world championships. In addition to the silver medals at the Mediterranean Games, he also hit the final in two editions of the Universiade (1987 and 1989).

His personal best jump is 2.32 metres, achieved in July 1988 in Turin. This was the Italian record until September 1989, when Marcello Benvenuti broke it by one centimetre.
