Le Clos shares silver with Phelps, Cseh
“But just seeing him go out and win the way he has has been inspiring to me”.
Ricky Fung, of Toronto, got a Michael Phelps-inspired tattoo on his right leg.
The acclaimed athlete’s fan, whose name is Ricky, got the glorious glare permanently tattooed on his leg this week by employee Livia Tsang, who also documented it on Instagram and Snapchat.
According to Tsang, her boss who is more concerned about filling up spaces on his body didn’t even care as much to what people think or say.
Swimming legend Michael Phelps gave birth to #PhelpsFace after throwing shade at his main rival for the 200m butterfly, South Africa’s Chad le Clos.
They were most common in gymnastics under the old 10-point judging system, which also produced the only four-way tie, for men’s vault silver in 1984. Perhaps it would have patched up any hard feelings between Le Clos and Phelps.
Despite having come out of retirement not too long ago, the world’s most decorated and famous swimmer, Michael Phelps has absolutely been ravaging the Rio Olympics.
“We knew what we were getting into when we did the tattoo and when we put it online”, she said.
On Thursday, Tsang tattooed Fung after filling in some details on the highest-quality photo she could lay hands on.
“I was out last night and a bunch of people were coming up to me, asking why I got it”, Fung told ESPN, “and I had to explain to them that looking at that is a good reminder every day to go out with focus and dominate like he did”.
