Tatjana Schoenmaker — an Olympic swimmer from South Africa set a new Olympic record in the 200 breaststroke and was just .05 off of the world record set in 2013. She won gold in the 200 breast and silver in the 100 breast (losing to the U.S. teenager from Alaska)

In all her competitions in Tokyo, Schoenmaker has worn a swim cap proclaiming her faith.



Soli Deo Gloria (Glory to God Alone).

Before the competition began, she posted this prayer on her social media channels.

Father God may your will be done, may your peace fill us up, may we praise you no matter what the outcome, may we be empowered by your strength to give it our all and may we forever be in the awe of your goodness!

Not all heroes wear capes.

I'd have no problem with her, or a lot of other South Africans, claiming asylum in the US.

This girl is beautiful inside and out.

It was wonderful to watch her congratulate jacoby on her win in the 100.
