The amazing Ahmed Hafnaoui is our first ‘Hero of the Weekend’ from the Tokyo Olympics

Ahmed Hafnaoui stunned the world and celebrated accordingly.

Each Monday during the Tokyo Olympics I’ll be giving a very prestigious award to an athlete who does something incredible over the weekend… and by a prestigious award I mean I’ll do a video where I sing their praises.

Tunisian swimmer Ahmed Hafnaoui is the first “Hero of the Weekend” for what he did in the men’s 400 freestyle Sunday in Tokyo. This 18-year-old kid swam a personal best in the prelims to be the last person to qualify for the finals and then he stunned a star-studded group and won the gold medal.

And his celebration was unreal. Learn more about this legend in the video at the top of this post.

Congrats, Ahmed Hafnaoui!
