McKayla Maroney

McKayla Maroney is an American former artistic gymnast, born on December 9, 1995. She was a member of the American women's team known as the Fierce Five that won the team gold medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics, and she took an individual silver medal on the vault at the same Games. Maroney was also part of the gold-winning American team at the 2011 World Championships, where she won the vault title, and she became the first American woman to defend a World Championship vault title when she won again in 2013. Earlier in her career she collected three golds at the 2010 Pan American Championships. A photograph of her unimpressed expression on the Olympic podium became an internet meme, and she retired from the sport in 2016.
