Australian beach volleyball player Taliqua Clancy got an unexpected surprise walking around the athletes’ village at the Paris Olympics on Monday.
Among the legions of other athletes from around the world, one figure stood out: French President Emmanuel Macron. “We got to see him which was cool. I was hanging around hoping to get a selfie, but I had to come here” for a news conference, she told reporters, laughing. She probably wouldn’t have got close enough, anyway, because Macron’s security team ushered her away.
