NEW YORK - Kyle Snyder made history at the Rio Olympics by becoming the youngest American wrestler to win a gold medal.
The medal will soon be history as well, to be replaced by the International Olympic Committee and Rio organizers because of damage.
Snyder and Helen Maroulis, another US gold medalist wrestler, are among a group of more than 100 athletes from around the world with defective Olympic medals.
