Finally the last ring in the blog post - but not the last letter in the Greek Alphabet - Chi. Pronounced like a kye.
A ring for 22nd place may seem odd, but it was created to honor the Greeks who invented the Olympics. By golly if your gonna have borrow some Greek Culture lets give'em some cultural credit while honoring the long hours of hard work and dedication that athletes put into their effort to make it there.
The first person male or female to earn this virtual ring of honor is the appropriately named Athlete from Kazakhstan Ms. Dovgun, Olga in the 10m air rifle shooting event.
