Team USA soccer player Lynn Williams has revealed that she broke her gold medal from the Paris Olympics while partying. Williams, a 31-year-old forward, had previously posted pictures of her medal without the ribbon that it was meant to be attached to. And in a new TikTok, she explained that she got 'carried away with the celebratory actions' after the USA women beat Brazil in the final.

Irish athlete Daire Lynch has revealed the poor condition of his medal after just two weeks since the Paris Olympic Games ended. The rower was required to return his medal, disclosing that organisers are eager to investigate the cause for such a deteriorated state. The Irishman is not the first athlete to report issues with the medal's quality after Team USA's fence Nick Itkin showed on TikTok that his bronze was littered with scratches and dark marks on both sides two weeks ago.

Britain's Olympians whose Paris 2024 medals have become prematurely tarnished have been offered a free repair and revamp by a company that makes the bonnet badges for Aston Martin. The offer to refurbish the recently awarded prizes given out at the Paris 2024 Olympics follows complaints from medallists who say some of those awarded at the games have already lost their lustre.

Team USA fencer Nick Itkin has revealed the grisly state of his Olympic bronze medal just days after earning it. The 24-year-old backed up his bronze from Tokyo with another podium performance in Paris, beating Japan's Kazuki Iimura 15-12 in the men's individual foil category. However, he has become the latest athlete to sound the alarm over his medal's deterioration after fellow American stars Nyjah Huston and Ilona Maher.

USA rugby sensation Ilona Maher revealed her Olympic bronze medal is already starting to wear.  The 28-year-old sat down for an interview on Late Night With Seth Meyers on Monday, and brought her new piece of hardware along to show the comedian.  Maher pulled the medal out of a red, white and blue case - which was knitted for her by British diver Tom Daly - and revealed she's been wearing it 'a lot' since her team's 14-12 victory over Australia last week.  

Organizers from the 2024 Olympics vowed to replace athletes' rusty medals after Team USA skateboarder Nyjah Huston revealed the condition of his bronze piece a week after winning it in Paris. On Thursday, the 29-year-old showed his Instagram followers how his medal had begun chipping shortly after returning to the States. As the story continues gaining traction, Olympic organizers have promised to replace damaged medals.

Team USA skateboarder Nyjah Huston revealed the poor condition of his Olympic medal just over a week after competing in Paris. Huston, 29, bagged a bronze medal in the French capital, falling behind gold medalist Yuto Horigome of Japan and fellow American Jagger Eaton in the men's street final. Days after returning Stateside, Huston took to Instagram to share his thoughts on the quality of the hardware he won at the games.

America's Men's Street skateboarding duo Jagger Eaton and Nyjah Huston had to settle for silver and bronze at the Paris Olympics after being pipped by Japan's Yuto Horigome for the gold. Jagger, 23, of Scottsdale, AZ, finished a fraction of a point behind the Japanese victor and in the closing stages looked set for gold, but ended on 281.04 against the winner's 281.14. Nyjah ended the eight-man final with 278.38 and also looked to be in contention for the gold medal, but Yuto proved too strong for the pair.

The Paris Games have proven difficult to navigate for Olympic skateboarders. Brazil's Rayssa Leal recorded herself skating through the 2,000-year-old city after an official transport and a scheduled bus failed to pick up the 16-year-old and her teammates. Instead, the group consisting of Leal, teammate Pamela Rosa, and the Netherlands' Keet Oldenbeuving embarked on a trek across the chaotic Paris streets in a desperate attempt to return to the Olympic Village. 'This is how we're going back to the Olympic Village,' Leal said in Portuguese while using a phone app to project clown makeup onto her face. 'We're going to the village like this.' But as the American team has discovered, skating through the Olympic village is frowned upon.
