CNN —Olivia Reeves became the first American lifter since 1958 to pair the world title with an Olympic gold medal, lifting a combined 267kg (about 589 pounds) at the 2024 World Weightlifting Championships in Bahrain on Wednesday. In topping the podium at Paris 2024, Reeves became the first US lifter since Tara Nott in 2000 to win Olympic gold, and the youngest American Olympic gold medalist in weightlifting since Berger in 1956. “You can’t top the Olympics, so this one is going in at number two on my all-time list of favorite competitions,” said Reeves after completing the double on Wednesday, per IWF. “I’m so very, very proud of Olivia,” added US head of coaching Mike Gattone. However, only 10 of the nation’s medals have come since 1968, following a golden age for US lifters like Berger and Tommy Kono.
