Kendall Jenner is congratulating boyfriend Devin Booker for bringing home the gold at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

The Men’s Basketball finals saw Team USA face off against France in the Gold Medal game on Saturday (August 7, Tokyo time) at Saitama Super Arena in Tokyo, Japan, with Devin and his basketball teammates winning the game – and the gold medal.

Soon after the game, Kendall went on Instagram Story to share a photo of her beau on the court, which she captioned with the gold medal emoji.

Devin scored two free throws and played a total of 22 minutes in the game. Team captain Kevin Durant led the team in scoring, making a total of 29 points.

Kendall and Devin were first romantically linked in April 2020, but only made their relationship Instagram official in on Valentine’s Day this year.

While she usually prefers to keep details of her personal life private, Kendall has been a bit more open with fans about her romance with Devin.

The 25-year-old model has previously opened up about her decision to keep her relationships private.

“[My sister] Kylie [Jenner] and I have had the opportunity to watch our older sisters go through marriages and relationships and breakups and all these things, and do them pretty publicly. …I think it makes my life a lot easier and our relationship a lot better [to remain private], to be completely honest,” she shared during the Keeping Up With the Kardashians: The Final Curtain reunion. “I just feel like it’s a private matter, it’s not really for anybody else to judge or know.”

And, as for the so-called “Kardashian curse” that allegedly affects athletes that members of their family are dating – it supposedly makes them choke during big game moments from all the scrutiny – she says, “I’m very excited about this question. What I don’t like about this narrative is that the blame is on us. I think the men need to take that responsibility. It’s almost offensive, personally.”

Devin isn’t Kendall’s only connection to the Olympics. In case you didn’t know, her dad, Caitlyn Jenner, is also gold medal-winning decathlete – he brought home the gold from the 1976 Olympics in Montreal.
