BRITTNEY GRINER LETS TEARS FLOW DURING NATIONAL ANTHEM AFTER USA WOMEN WIN GOLD

[RandySF]

Standing on the medal stand with her third gold medal draped around her neck, Brittney Griner looked at the U.S. flag with tears streaming down her cheeks during the national anthem.

She didn't wipe them away until after the anthem ended, never trying to hide how she feels representing her country 612 days after the U.S. got the American star home after 10 months in a Russian prison.

Not with all that this moment meant.

Griner didn't think she'd have this chance again.

1. It really was a very moving moment.

ESPECIALLY considering the ungodly ordeal she left behind. It'll always be with her, and it will probably always haunt her to some degree. But at least she's FREE once again, and that incomprehensible ordeal is behind her.
