CRUSHING IT:
Two gold medals for Hungary on Day 1, as London winner Szász Emese repeated in the épée and Hosszú Katinka (who failed spectacularly in London) shattered the world record, as expected, in the 400 IM. The rather overexcited dude above is her coach and husband; their story is rather unique and I highly recommend reading this New York Times piece on them from a few days ago.
Incredible from Katinka Hosszu.

Her husband was excited, but that's nothing new.
