Hello reader,

Thirty-two years since Indonesia won its first Olympic gold medals, the country has finally won not one, but two more from outside of badminton courtesy of heroics from Veddriq Leonardo and Rizki Juniansyah.

The speed climber and weightlifter together made history yesterday, as they join the very exclusive club of Indonesian gold medal winners. Read on to learn about other records they have broken.

What a glorious way to end the week and start the weekend. Have a great one, and I’ll slide back in your inboxes on Monday.

Cheers,

Andra
