Can You Guess The Olympic Event By The Emojis?

It's been an Olympic event for men and women since 1996.

Beach volleyball

Eleftherios Petrounias of Greece took home the gold in Rio.

Gymnastics - men's rings

Also unofficially known to the layperson as [horse dancing](https://www.buzzfeed.com/juliegerstein/a-horse-just-danced-to-rob-thomass-smooth-and-its-the-best-t?utm_term=.afEJkQzEAE#.bv9NVQvZLZ), possibly to Santana's "Smooth." Or if you want to get technical, "the ultimate expression of horse training and elegance," according to the [International Federation for Equestrian Sports](http://www.fei.org/disciplines/dressage).

Dressage

The athletes have to manipulate a rope, ball, hoop, ribbon or clubs during their routines.

Rhythmic gymnastics

This doozy of an event combines fencing, horse riding, swimming, running and shooting. ALL ON THE SAME DAY.

Modern pentathlon

This is a new event at the Rio games for both men and women. It's got fewer people on the field than rugby union — seven a side, hence the name.

Rugby Sevens

Ballet in the pool, complete with lipstick, sequins and incredible lung capacity.

Synchronized swimming

You didn't medal.

Bronze!

Silver!

You really know your Olympic events. And your emojis.

Gold!

Comme la fameuse épreuve cheval + chapeau haut de forme + danseur.

Pourrez-vous deviner à quelles épreuves des JO correspondent ces emojis?
