Ricky Berens was left red-faced at the World Swimming Championships in Rome on Sunday, but the American swimmer walked away with gold in the end.
Berens tore the back of his swimsuit while stretching just prior to his leg of a 4x100m freestyle relay preliminary, but he pressed on and earned a gold medal when his American teammates placed first in the final.
"I kind of freaked out for just a second," Berens was quoted as saying in The Huffington Post. "I felt like [the hole] was almost down to my knees. I felt like I was putting on a pretty good show."
I'm just glad that Berens at least had the body for the suit. LOL
