Annette Echikunwoke, a hammer thrower originally set to represent Nigeria, has become an Olympic medalist for the United States.
After being disqualified from the 2020 Tokyo Games due to a Nigerian Athletics Federation error, she changed her allegiance to the U.S. and went on to win silver in the women’s hammer throw at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
