Kle Snyder became the youngest American wrestler at the Rio Olympics, refreshed history and won the gold medal.

The medals are about to become history and are replaced by the IOC and the Rio organizers because of their damage.

on Tuesday. USOC said more than 80 US athletes decided to send their medals in Lyon's Rio to the US Olympic Committee headquarters to the game organizers, who would replace them because of exploitation, black spots and other injuries.

Including the gold medal wrestler Snyder and Helen Malu Lisi, including the Americans, there are at least 100 medals from the global Olympic Games

Beach volleyball star Kerri Walsh Jennings is also among them; she says her bronze is peeling and rusting, and American swimmer Scott Leightman says some swimmers are also damaged.

USOC has been aware of these issues in December and conducted an investigation to all US sports federations in January.
Mario Andrada, a spokeswoman for the Rio press, said officials had noticed 6 to 7 percent of medals.

The most common problem, he says, is that they are discarded or because of improper handling, varnishes have fallen off and rusty, and even blackened in the damaged area.

It is not uncommon for medals to be handed over to the post party and processed by hundreds of people. But such damage is unusual.

Walsh Jennings, who won three gold medals at the Olympic Games, said her medals were often defeated because she did not hesitate to get people to meet them or try it. But she will not consider locking them because people are inspired by them.

Walsh Jennings told the Associated Press that they had already proposed to replace them, and I did not know if I had to exchange it. The reason is "100% sentimental."

US basketball team spokesman Craig Miller (Craig Miller) said the organization reached out to its players, seven or three men and four women, they think their medals have problems.

Who won the Ohio Snyder won his medal was 20 years old. He noticed the problem the next day after winning.

He went to a meeting of the American team in Rio, where he said that many people had dealt with the medal when they celebrated. Snyder said he later found a scars, though he added that there was no further damage.

Snyder said he had been able to get his gold medal until the end of the week, and he did not know when he would get his bench.

Snyder said. "It's not too big," Snyder said. "But because they gave me a new one, it was cool."

Rio de Janeiro spent about $ 12 billion on organizing games that were cost-cutting, decreased attendance, and bribery and corruption reports related to the construction of some Olympic-related facilities.

Nine months later, many venues were empty, no tenants or income - maintenance costs were dumped on the federal government. In addition to the medal features of the Rio and Olympic signs, the local organizing committee also owed the creditors about $ 30 million.

Greg Massialas, the national coach of the American Fencing team in Rio de Janeiro, said in an information to the AP that his son Alex won the silver medal. He added that he had not heard of any problems with other American boxers.

US striker Ginny Thrasher and boxer Claressa Shields, as well as Japanese men's tennis bronze medalist Xining West, said their gold medals were intact.

It can be seen that the quality of the medal for the contestants and even the impact on the Olympic Games are huge, a bad medal is the winner of the disrespect, but also the contempt for the Olympic Games.
But our medals do not like this, the quality of our medals is zinc alloy, the plating is professional, the paint is professional, and we wear the weaving belt we are also selected after a very strict screening out. So like some paint off, black is impossible to appear.
