Singapore, October 5, 2020: Singapore’s Olympic Games golden boy Joseph Schooling is still very much the Boss back home.

Schooling, who earned global headlines by beating Michael Phelps and winning the gold medal in the men’s 100m butterfly at Rio 2016, has seen his life change outside the pool, too, since his momentous victory four years ago.

As an ambassador for the luxury brand Hugo Boss, Schooling launched a new autumn look over the Mid- Autumn Festival in Singapore.

“New month, new look,” he wrote on his Facebook account, which has 950,000 followers.

The 25-year-old Schooling’s post quickly attracted over 3,700 Likes from his fan base and showed once again what rewards a dedicated athlete can reap away from their sport.

As well as winning Singapore’s first Olympic Games gold medal in history, Schooling also has three Asian Games gold medals in his favoured butterfly stroke, including two gold to break the China-Japan duopoly at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta and Palembang.
