After Ester Ledecka won the Olympic super-G gold medal in PyeongChang, another Olympic champion with a similar last name expressed her excitement.
“That’s what Ledecka’s do” was posted to Katie Ledecky’s Twitter account with three exclamation points:
That's what Ledecka's do!!! @DanHicksNBC #PyeongChang2018

Even Ledecka, who has never finished better than 19th in a World Cup super-G, was surprised by her Olympic triumph. She exclaimed “How did that happen?” after seeing her time.
Ester, I think we're related, we need to do a DNA test? #CousinsInGold 🇨🇿 https://t.co/2mUradCr4C
