Israel’s Artem Dolgopyat wins Floor in Munich

Israeli gymnast Artem Dolgopyat, Olympic Floor champion in Tokyo, won gold again on Sunday at the European Artistic Gymnastics Championship in Munich.

Dolgopyat, 25, was born in Ukraine to a Jewish father and non-Jewish mother and immigrated 13 years ago. 

It was in the same Olympic venue as the Munich massacre by 8 members of the Palestinian terrorist group Black September.

“I’m exhausted, but happy. I did what I could," Dolgopyat said in an interview after the competition. "I have some issues with my foot. I only prepared for the championship two weeks in advance, but I did it and I’m happy." https://t.co/ptGsaN1yT5
