U.S. swimmers Anthony Ervin holds up his gold medal in the men's 50m freestyle in this Sept. 22, 2000 photo, at the Sydney International Aquatic Center during the Summer Olympics in Sydney. Ervin was a star in the Sydney Olympics, winning a gold medal at 50 meters, but decided the medal could be put to better use. He sold it at auction, and is donating the $17,100 he got for it to tsunami relief efforts. (AP Photo/David Longstreath)
