Lydia Ko revealed the reason behind her Olympic tattoo

In 2024, the LPGA star Lydia Ko won the gold medal in the Olympics after shooting 72-67-68-71 over the four rounds. Previously, she also won the silver and bronze medals in other editions but after winning the gold medal, Ko got inked.

Ko explained the reason behind choosing the tattoo design, via LPGA:

“I really like my Olympic Rings (tattoo)… and when I won the gold, I reached out to the tattoo artist that did my Rings and said, ‘Do you have any good ideas for the three (medals)?...He said, ‘How about a skyline?’ He asked me for three things that would signify the three cities: Christ the Redeemer, Mount Fuji, the Eiffel Tower. He came up with a couple of designs, and this is the one I liked.”

She added, “The idea was, depending on what color medal I got, it’s taller, so even though Mount Fuji is the tallest (in real life), the Eiffel Tower is the tallest for me (and my tattoo).”

Lydia Ko won silver and bronze medals in 2016 and 2020, respectively. In the 2020 Olympics, Ko scored 16 under 268 to finish in third place. In the 2016 Olympics, she finished in second place by scoring 11 under 273.
