Olympics: Who is Yusuf Dikec, the Turkyish shooter who has gone viral?


"The Olympic #shootingsport stars we didn’t know we needed,” the official Olympics account on X posted on Aug 1, with pictures of Kim and Dikec.

CHATEAUROUX, France: Turkyish pistol shooter Yusuf Dikec (pic) has gone viral on social media for his seemingly casual attitude while shooting his way to a silver medal at the 2024 Olympics.

The most-shared images show Dikec shooting in a T-shirt with one hand in his pocket, a seemingly standard pair of glasses and an impassive look on his face. He's been likened to a regular guy competing at the Olympics, or even a hitman.
