One of my favorite things about the Olympics is seeing stories like these that we normally do not hear about. If same person, been seeing her for weeks before the games. Beer commercials have been featuring her. Quote

Remembered her at age 17 in the Rio Olympics 5 years ago. Great race breaking a world record last night with a total of 3 women very close as you indicated. They mentioned her father just had a heart transplant. Edited August 4, 2021 by Bash Riprock 1 Quote
DE Posted August 4, 2021 Posted August 4, 2021 Can't believe all the olympic aficionado's haven't posted about wrestler, Tamyra Mensah-Stock. Is it because of her post gold medal interview where she proclaims her love and adoration for the country she is representing. The GREATEST country on Earth....THE USA! Great job young lady! 1 Quote
