The Olympic medals for the Turin Winter Games are unveiled on Wednesday

TURIN, Italy (AP) -- No, athletes at the Winter Games are not being rewarded with gold doughnuts -- it just looks that way.
The new medal design for the Olympics in Turin, unveiled Wednesday, features a hole in the center of the metal disc.
While it may appear as though biathletes have been using them for target practice, the medals are actually meant to represent the open space of an Italian piazza, or city square.
The medals have the Turin logo on one side and images from various sports and disciplines on the other. The red silk ribbon that goes around the winner's neck is looped through the hole in the center.
