The Olympics this year was noteworthy for various things, ranging from the Imane Khelif controversy to Arshad Nadeem’s javelin throw that broke the Olympic record. France’s Léon Marchand was arguably the most decorated athlete in the competition winning four gold medals in swimming while India’s Vinesh Phogat endured a late heartbreak after she was found 100 gm overweight during the official weigh in on the morning of her 50 kg wrestling final which led to her disqualification. There was always something newsworthy going on in those 14 days in France.
To help people experience the Olympics, the Paris 2024 digital team had set up a customer care service which resulted in some rather funny and interesting questions which the team made public recently.
