NBC has added a pair of Winter Olympians to their Summer Olympics coverage this August. Apolo Ohno and Tanith White will cover the Games for NBC in Rio this summer as reporters.

Both Ohno and White have worked in the past for NBC, and both have won medals at the Winter Games. Ohno took home eight medals in short track speed skating, including two golds, over three Olympic Games, while White won a silver in ice dancing during the 2006 Olympics.

The pair will appear at numerous venues throughout the Games and contribute features to several different platforms.

White contributed to the 2014 Olympics in Sochi as a reporter, while Ohno served as a reporter in 2012 and a short track analyst in 2014.
