The young woman impressed sports fans with her spontaneous act

Zhou Yaqin, the vice-champion of the world in artistic gymnastics (2023), became a real Internet star after the 2024 Olympics award ceremony. The 18-year-old Chinese woman won silver in the final of the balance beam.

Zhou scored 14,100 points, losing to the winner Alice D'Amato from Italy by 266 thousand points. Another Italian, Manila Esposito, won the bronze medal. During the solemn photo shoot, the Europeans traditionally 'tasted' the medals.

This came as a surprise to young Zhou. When she saw what her rivals were doing, Yaqin put the medal to her mouth herself, but she did it so directly and with such a childlike expression that she instantly won the sympathy of fans around the world.

The video from the ceremony went viral on social media, garnering millions of views.
