Sky Brown is about to make history. The skateboarder will be the youngest Olympian ever to represent Great Britain at a Summer Games, which begins in Tokyo on July 23.
The 12-year-old — who’s on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube — qualified through world rankings last month and will compete in the women’s park event.
During the event, Brown will be 11 days past her thirteenth birthday. That beats out Margery Hinton, who was 13 years and 44 days old when she swam for Great Britain at the Amsterdam Olympics nearly a century ago.
