Alysa Liu became the latest Olympic athlete to earn a gold medal that broke. She detailed having to return the item after it detached from its ribbon following her team event win on Feb. 8. “I was just jumping up and down, as one does to celebrate, and it just dropped,” she told Overtime in an interview posted on Feb. 9. “It just literally fell off of the ribbon. It got very scratched up… pretty dented.” Despite the imperfections, Alysa was happy to keep her hard-earned medal—but it’s what happened next that was even more surprising. “I actually liked it when it was off the ribbon, but that’s not allowed,” the 20-year-old said. “I had to give it in. I was like, ‘Can’t you just fix this one?’ I’m attached. But it’s OK, I’m detached. Just like it was.” Liu received a new medal the next day.
