Olivia Dunne reflects on viral SI catwalk moment

Olivia Dunne graced the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Runway Show earlier this month. She went viral for performing a split on the catwalk.

"I actually had my Invisalign aligners in and then I went on the runway, had all the confidence in the world and dropped into a split," Dunne said. "Because why not? Gymnastics will never leave me. I’ll always be a gymnast at heart.
"I was so nervous that during rehearsal, I walked down the wrong side of the runway. But whenever I get nervous, I just take a deep breath and smile, because that makes me feel my best."

Meanwhile, her boyfriend, Paul Skenes, dazzled from the mound for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Skenes was lights out in his latest outing, pitching 7.2 innings with seven strikeouts against the Philadelphia Phillies, helping the Pirates to a 2-1 win.
