A historic double podium for Italy, this afternoon, at Paris 2024 Olympics, which saw gymnast Alice D’Amato win the gold medal on the balance beamwith Manila Esposito who instead won the bronze medal; on the second step of the podium, the Chinese Yaqin Zhou.
“My world fell on me and I really don’t have the words to speak right now. I will try to enjoy this gold on the beam as much as possible, it was so unexpected: I wasn’t even expecting a medal, and instead the gold arrived. I tried to hold my own for this competition, I did it and I’m really happy. I was fighting and I didn’t want to leave without another medal because I did both the all-around which I missed by a hair, and the parallel bars too, but now I can go home very happy”, the words of the gymnast to the microphones of the Italian Gymnastics Federation.

Born in Genoa on February 7, 2003, D’Amato is a Sampdoria fan, and the club wanted to pay homage to her through social media: “Genovese and Sampdoriana”, the message from the Blucerchiati club, accompanying a post that portrays the athlete with the medal she recently won.
