"So I land at the airport, & there’s a crowd waiting at the exit with cameras & things for me to sign," she wrote. "All up in my personal space. Someone chased me to my car bruh.

"Please do not do that to me."

Liu, 20, went from Olympic hopeful to gold medalist within the span of a few months as she won the women’s singles figure skating competition at the Milan Cortina Games. Liu’s electric performance dazzled the crowd in Italy and had Americans back home raving about her.

It was the second of two gold medals she received during the Games. She was a part of the team figure skating competition that won gold early in the Olympics.

She is far from the only professional athlete who has had to deal with raving fans at the airport. Most notably, pro wrestlers have been outspoken about similar issues.
