ANN ARBOR, Michigan — American gymnast Frederick Richard wants to do more than win a medal or two at the Olympics. The 20-year-old wants people to know his chosen sport isn't just for women. Richard is the president and CEO of "Frederick Flips" an apparel company, and a social media influencer with hundreds of thousands of followers. Richard has plenty of substance to go with his style. He became the first American man in 13 years to win a medal at the world championships last fall. Richard says however things go for him in Paris, his mission to bring men's gymnastics to the masses will not change.
