AN OLYMPIAN has got the perfect dating app picture after an awkward caption appeared underneath him.
Nicolas Garcia was competing in the Paris Olympics 3m synchro diving when the caption was displayed by the BBC.
The Spaniard, 29, was walking beside the pool when the broadcaster put up a caption for the Chinese team.
The caption showed the team’s scores for their dive along with the names Long and Wang.
This was for star divers Wang Zongyuan and Long Daoyi, who are the reigning world champions.
However, viewers could not help but see the funny side of their names.
One fan posted: “This lad’s dating app profile picture is sorted.”
A second wrote: “Man, I love the Olympics.”
A third commented: “Impressive from Long/Wang.”

A fourth said: “My inner 12-year-old is highly amused by the Long/Wang Chinese diving team.
A fifth added: “Wasn’t expecting Cook/Bacon to get beaten but there it is.”
A sixth joked: “Long/Wang competing in the Olympics diving this morning. No, YOU grow up.”
Another shared: “For some reason, Mrs S is a big fan of the pairing currently in the No1 position in the synchronised diving.”
Meanwhile, Team GB stars Jack Harding and Anthony Harding were also competing in the 3m syncho diving.
