Dutch star Jens van 't Wout shares Olympic podium with his brother and feels like he won the lottery
Dutch short track speedskating star Jens van ’t Wout already has two gold medals at the Milan Cortina Olympics, but Wednesday’s bronze medal felt like winning the lottery. “We always used to say, ‘Imagine if,’ like in the context of if I win the lottery,” Jens van ’t Wout said. Jens van ’t Wout won gold in the 1,500 meters and the 1,000 in Milan, but it was a first Olympic medal for Melle van ’t Wout, who returned this season from a serious knee injury that required surgery and kept him out for nearly two years.
