After nearly three weeks of competition, the 2024 Paris Olympics is over. World records have been smashed, medals have been doled out, and several athletes from around the globe have become beloved [viral celebrities](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/top-stars-2024-olympics-memes-stephen-neodoroscik-ilona-maher-favorite-olympians-viral-gymnast-cheese/) practically overnight, meaning we’ll probably be seeing their newly famous faces on at least a few Nike billboards in the coming months. And between multimillion-dollar ad campaigns and big-league brand sponsorships, they’ll also be seeing some good money, which will typically go towards an upgrade or two. 

If they’re fellow art lovers, this could very well take the form of a burgeoning art collection, even though everyone knows it takes some time, patience, and guidance for first-time collectors to refine and develop their personal aesthetic. So since Cohart already has a [complimentary art advisor](https://www.cohart.com/advisor-help) program, we’re giving our five favorite Olympians some curated suggestions based on what we’ve seen through social media, whether it’s [_brat_ representation](https://www.cohart.com/news/brat-summer-is-here) or the [muffins](https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2024/08/02/muffin-man-henrik-christiansen-olympics/74645563007/) at the Olympic Village.

#### Kim Yeji (Shooting — South Korea)
The silver medalist’s [“Main Character” energy](https://twitter.com/womenpostingws/status/1818295641183027353) and cyberpunk eyepiece is straight out of a ‘90s sci-fi flick.

#### Yusuf Dikec (Shooting — Turkey)
On the opposite end is Dikec, an [old-school straight shooter](https://olympics.com/en/news/yusuf-dikec-turkish-shooting-viral-paris-2024-olympics) with no need for any special equipment. His regular glasses do just fine.

#### Stephen Nederoscik (Gymnastics — U.S.A.)
Speaking of glasses, the electrical engineering grad, Rubik’s cube enthusiast, and [pommel horse “sleeper agent”](https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/30/sport/stephen-nedoroscik-pommel-horse-olympics-cec/index.html) didn’t let his extremely blurry vision stop him from taking the first medal for Team U.S.A.’s men’s gymnastics team in 16 years.


Tyler Downs.png

#### Tyler Downs (Diving — U.S.A.)
With nearly 900K TikTok followers, the irreverent 21-year-old is living his best life by bringing [_brat_ summer](https://www.cohart.com/news/brat-summer-is-here) to Paris, testing out the Olympic Village’s “anti-sex” beds, and hanging out in [“the dining hall to stare at all the hot athletes”](https://www.si.com/onsi/athlete-lifestyle/news-feed-page/posts/team-usa-diver-tyler-downs-thirsty-reason-olympic-games)


Henrik Christiansen.png

#### Henrik Christiansen (Swimming — Norway)
If he’s in the dining hall, then Downs has definitely seen Norway’s “[Muffin Man](https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2024/08/02/muffin-man-henrik-christiansen-olympics/74645563007/),” the Norweigan TikTok star known as the Olympic Village’s #1 baked good stan.
