Yeah! Where is Tonya Harding!? She so should have won. She just wished her opponents all the best "break a leg" she intimated.

In my eyes it is not the winner that counts but everybody who tried

so many I could see their faces, even their skating, and couldn't remember the names - total blank.

I think technically the 2018 winner should be listed as OAR, as Russia wasn't allowed to compete as a team.

OAR would be a valid choice as well, but she's still from Russia. Never mind what the "R" stands for ...

Aargh, I tried Vitt instead of Witt. So close and yet so far.

The Olympics, like the Holy Roman Empire, has betrayed all of the principles that it claims to uphold. And, like the HRE, will probably last indefinitely, or at least as long as there is money to be made selling broadcast rights.

100% agree. Cheat, go ahead, we'll still let your people compete wearing the colours of your flag. BTW, they can still compete together, we'll just slightly change the name under which they compete.

I was going to say that I must have, for some reason, been more interested in figure skating from '84-'98, because those are the only ones I got or can even remember hearing of before. But then... looking at the quiz results... it looks like the world was more interested in figure skating those same years.

Please also accept " Poetzsch" as an alternate spelling.

I knew Henie, Lipinski, Witt and Liu and simply guessed Kim for the Korean skater.

Enough to beat 62 % of test takers.

Yuna Kim is one of the most revered figure skaters (both in recent history and in the history of the sport as a whole), would highly recommend checking her work out

Surprised on how low the percentages for 2022 and 2018 was.
