When Sun Yang broke the world record and won the men's 1,500m freestyle, it was Yang Yang, an International Olympic Committee official and the winner of China's first Winter Olympics gold medal, who presented the gold to him.
"Having experienced the moment of winning myself, I felt touched and honored when presenting the medal," said the 36-year-old former world champion in speed skating. "But when I won, I did not really pay attention to whom was presenting the medal - I was too happy."
A decade after Yang Yang's speed skating victory, it looks like she is still on top of every aspect of her life, including motherhood.
