As the world’s top athletes gather in Paris for the summer Games, they’re not just honored by medals; there’s something more! The latest talk in P-town has to be about the amazing goodie bags! All the stars, including the golfers who are about to tee off at Le Golf National in a few hours, have gotten this amazing goodie bag. New Zealand rugby star Tyla King gave us a sneak peek into the Olympic goody bags, and trust us, it’s no short of a treasure!

In her latest TikTok video, King showed everything, one by one, to the camera. First off, athletes get a sleek black trendy tote bag with the Olympic logo and the ‘Athlete 365’ written on it. But that’s just the beginning! Inside, they’ll find a giant Olympic flag with words of value like solidarity, inclusion, and respect printed on it, which acts as a reminder of what the big showdown stands for.

But wait, there’s more! Athletes also get not one but two water bottles, one from the refreshing soft drink brand Coca-Cola and the other from the sports drink brand Powerade. These bottles will definitely help athletes from around the world stay hydrated in style! And let’s not forget the small bag packed with essentials like an oral toothbrush and toothpaste, Head & Shoulders shower gel, hand sanitizer, and Febreze air freshener. Such quality products for your amazing talents!

And the showstopper in the Olympic goodies bag has to be the brand-new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip phone, worth a whopping $1144.36! Yes, that’s right, every athlete who participates in the Olympics receives a brand-new phone in the gift bag! This is not the first time the Olympics have given out expensive phones. According to King, she didn’t have to buy a new phone in the last nine years, courtesy of the Olympics. King competed at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, where she secured a silver medal for women’s rugby, and at the 2020 Tokyo Games, where she scored the gold.

King now has two gold medals to her name after her win at the 2024 Olympics. Team USA’s and defending gold medalist Nelly Korda and co. must be thrilled with the exceptional goodie bag. But amidst all the excitement and awesome goodies, there have been some complaints at the Olympic Village too.

What are the conditions at the Olympic Village?

The main problem at the Olympic Village is the lack of air conditioning. The Olympic Village in Paris has turned into a scorching hot zone, leaving athletes feeling drained and worried about their performance. This is understandable because the shortage of air conditioning is taking a toll on their bodies and minds. Athletes struggle to get a good night’s sleep, and some have come forward with their concerns.

The Australian representative for the swimming competition, Ariarne Titmus, said, “It probably wasn’t the time I thought I was capable of, but living in the Olympic Village makes it hard to perform,” per Metro. Even with 2,500 temporary cooling units installed, the heat remains a major concern. “There’s multiple factors that make village life far from ideal,’ said former Olympic swimmer James Magnussen.

He even said on Matty & The Missile podcast that many athletes would miss out on the medal because of the unsettling conditions at the Olympic Village. He shared that Australia swimming team got their portable air conditioners to feel better, and battle the heat.

The skyrocketing temperatures are not allowing the players to focus on their training. The latest temperature recorded at the Olympic Village is 16 degrees, according to AccuWeather. With these unfavorable conditions, do you think the women’s golf team for the USA will be able to perform at their best? Let us know in the comment section below!
