Hungarian skier becomes headlines for her 'worst' performance in Pyeongchang Olympic

Sometimes you don't have to be the best to catch eyeballs. Maybe going towards the opposite direction is also ok.  Some even commented she's 'the worst athlete in Olympic'!

The Hungarian woman, Elizabeth Swaney, has recently become a celebrity because she has been able to compete in the Pyeongchang Olympic Women Freestyle Ski Halfpipe but showed no tricks during skiing.

Being 'unremarkable' in skiing. but Elizabeth Swaney actually shines at other areas. She not only got a master's degree in Harvard but also used to sign up to participate in the governor of California by-election at 19.

To prevent falls, Swaney decided to safely complete the competition with simple skills. She only got 31.4 points and 30 points in the first two round, compared with top players of 80 to 90 points.

"I actually did three tricks." Swaney said: "when hear someone say I didn't do it or only one special skill, I feel strange. Besides, I can do as the Ski World Cup top star of high levels, but I haven't been able to comfortably do it in the snow, and I always strive for the best performance in the game. In the past two years, I have attended the Ski World Cup but just failed to have the best performance at the Olympics."

The Washington Commanders are bringing aboard D.J. Williams, whose father is Super Bowl-winning quarterback Doug Williams, as their new QBs coach, a person with knowledge of the move told The Associated Press on Wednesday night.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not yet announced the hiring of the younger Williams, who was the quarterbacks coach this past season for the Atlanta Falcons.

The move was first reported by ESPN.

D.J. Williams was an offensive assistant and assistant QBs coach for Atlanta in 2024.

Before that, he spent five seasons with the New Orleans Saints as an offensive assistant.

He played quarterback in college at Grambling State, the same school where his father was a QB before being a first-round NFL draft pick. The older Williams went on to play for the Washington franchise and was the Super Bowl MVP when the club defeated the Denver Broncos 42-10 after the 1987 season.

Doug Williams is now an executive with the Commanders.

D.J. Williams replaces Tavita Pritchard, who was Washington's quarterbacks coach during Jayden Daniels' AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year campaign in 2024 and left the Commanders during this past season after being hired by Stanford as its head coach.

David Blough, who was the assistant QBs coach under Pritchard and helped fill in after he moved on, was promoted last week to offensive coordinator. The previous OC, Kliff Kingsbury, agreed with head coach Dan Quinn two days after Washington's 5-12 season ended that it was time to part ways.

Quinn still also needs to find a new assistant QBs coach, offensive line coach and defensive coordinator. The former DC, Joe Whitt Jr., was fired after the season.
