French broadcasters lose their minds as Teddy Riner wins gold
There may be no athlete in these Olympics that had a better Games than France’s Teddy Riner. They began with him lighting the Olympic Cauldron to conclude the Opening Ceremony, then he went on to take gold in both the individual and team judo events.
Riner delivered that team win in incredibly dramatic fashion, after a random lottery chose his weight class for the tiebreaking match. Riner — the most decorated Judo Olympian ever — of course won and sent the home crowd into a frenzy.
Before that team gold he had another moment that may have been even better, when he won the individual gold with a tremendous finishing move. Not only did it send the crowd into mayhem, but the French broadcast team lost it right along with them, providing an instant classic of a call.
