American Jewish gymnast Aly Raisman has helped propel her team to a gold medal at London 2012.
The 18-year-old from Massachusetts, who performed her floor routine to the tune Hava Nagila, appeared last in the US line up in the team competition.
As she left the floor, bringing her team its first win outside of US soil, she appeared to be holding back tears of joy. "It's an amazing feeling to win gold," she told the JC. "The best feeling in the world, and it shows that all the hard work has paid off. "It's a huge honour to be the first Jewish gold medallist of the 2012 Games. "I'm so excited and it definitely gives me a boost of confidence. It's crazy and I cannot believe it."
