01 March 2010 @ 09:33 am BST

Lloyd's of London, the world's leading specialist insurer is paying out to South Korean star, Yuna Kim after her Gold medal at the Winter Olympics.

Yuna, 19, insured her 228.56 score against a Lloyd's syndicate who will pay out to her $1 million for achieving it.

Kim completed 11 jumps perfectly, exceeding her previous world record score in the free programme to post 150.06 winning her the gold.

Meanwhile, Mao Asada, her closest competitor posted just 131.72 after she performed poorly with claims that underrotating on her jumps 'flattered' her score which could have been even lower.

Yuna, meanwhile will be the richest athlete at the Olympics, banking an extra $1 million.
