Ryan Lochte won the gold medal yesterday in the 400m medley. With this success, the 27 year old Rochester, United States, has taken the place of Michael Phelps in the hearts of fellow swimmers. Lochte has enjoyed up to this moment of glory appearing on the podium wearing a grill, like Kanye West.

In short it is a prosthesis positioned in front of the teeth and entirely composed of diamonds. Fortunately for the American swimmer, gold medal did not go to someone else. Otherwise you know to do the swashbuckling figure for a “simple” silver or, God forbid, bronze.
