Golden 'Grams: Drake gives a big shoutout to Canadian rookie
And Mikael Kingsbury shows he's also the king of the camera
By Tanya Casole-Gouveia, CBC Sports
From Ghana to the 6ix, and of course in Pyeongchang, we're going worldwide for this edition of Golden Grams.
Here's what Canadians were double-tapping on our feed today:
King of the hill is the king of the cam
Mikael Kingsbury went from the top of the podium to behind the camera to capture our "Photo of the Day." Seems like Mikael might have a future in media because he also tried his hand at journalism when he interviewed silver medallist Matt Graham after they both received their medals earlier this week.
Getting down with Ghana
Karina LeBlanc usually brings the party wherever she goes. But this time, she found it with Ghana fans cheering for Skeleton athlete Akwasi Frimpong: the first athlete to represent the country in skeleton at the Olympics.
Drake with the big ups
Champagnepapi, as he's known on the 'Gram, gave a shout out to Canadian rookie Sarah Nurse on her first Olympic goal. Here let us translate for you, "Only in Canada will you find a great player that goes top corner for a GOAL!"...or something like that.
Here's that "Gino," from Wednesday nights Canada vs. USA hockey game.
