In her last Olympics, Martha Karolyi leaves gymnastics legacy tinged in gold

In her last Olympics, Martha Karolyi leaves gymnastics legacy tinged in gold:

In her place, Bela and Martha Karolyi will leave a system that has changed gymnastics in America.
“After 56 years, I believe it’s enough,” says Bela Karolyi. “To be honest, after 10 Olympics Games behind us and another one in front of us, it was a beautiful journey. We enjoyed it very much. But I believe that’s the end.”
