Elite athletes at the Tokyo Olympics have two things in common — remarkable talent in their area of sport and a tattoo of the universally known Olympic rings. From head to toe — teeny tiny or extra large — competitors in gymnastics, swimming, archery, soccer, judo, volleyball, and beyond commit to the ink. While the Games may come and go, their tattoos will live on, and you can't blame them for never wanting to forget.
