Thirteen-year-old skateboarder Sky Brown won bronze in the women's park skateboarding event at the Tokyo Olympics on Wednesday. The teen is Great Britain's youngest Olympic medalist ever and the third 13-year-old to win a medal for skateboarding at the Tokyo Games.

Japan's Momiji Nishiya became one of the youngest Olympic gold medalists ever after winning the women's street competition last week.

Brown, who went professional at 10, has grown up in the limelight and is extremely popular on social media, with over 1 million followers on Instagram. She also has a YouTube channel with her brother, Ocean, and went viral at 4 years old when her dad, Stu, posted a clip of her skateboarding on Facebook, BBC News reports.
