"Aside from his medal win, fans were quick to notice Dikeç’s attire during the event, which consisted of a white T-shirt and black pants. While shooting, the Olympian also adopted a very laid-back stance, with one hand in his pocket and another hand holding up his pistol as he stared directly at the target.On his head, he was only wearing his pair of glasses, rather than using specific lenses that are worn by other athletes when shooting. He also wasn’t wearing ear protectors during the event, which competitors often use to block out the loud noises.
On X, formerly known as Twitter, many fans were impressed by Dikeç’s casual stance and relaxed demeanor when winning a silver medal. They also applauded Dikeç’s competitor, South Korean Olympic shooter Kim Yeji, who fans have called a “movie character” for her all-black attire and stance during the event.
“I think I’m gonna have to take a closer look at the Olympic Pistol competition. First we got South Korean Kim Yeji, who’s a total bada**,” one wrote. “Then comes Turkish competitor Yusuf Dikeç, who casually goes out and wins the silver with one hand in his pocket!” (Independent)
