Netherlands Speed Skating Dominance

With its medal sweep in today’s women’s 1,500 metre speed skating, the Netherlands has now won 16 medals in speed skating (long-track) at Sochi. If you include short-track, all 17 of their medals in Sochi have come in speed skating.

This is a new record for the most medals won by a nation in a single sport at the Winter Olympics. The previous record was 14 by Austria in 2006 Alpine Skiing, with the Soviet Union winning 13 in cross-country skiing in 1988 and the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) also winning 13 in 1988, in speed skating. Here are all the times a nation has won 10 or more medals in a single sport at one Winter Olympics.

In the women’s 1,500 metres today, the Netherlands actually went 1-2-3-4. This was the 3rd medal sweep by the Netherlands in speed skating at these Olympics, making it the first nation to ever sweep the medals 3 times at a Winter Olympics.

No, it is not the first time that a nation has swept places1-4 at the Winter Olympics – its actually the 7th time this has happened. But it is the first time it has happened in speed skating. The other 6 times were as follows:

  • The 2 medals give the USA 16 for Sochi, and puts USA ahead in the total medal count in 2014

The Points Table – Day Eight

The middle Saturday of the Sochi Olympics saw a fundamental change to the points table. Since Day 1 Norway have led, usually with a sizeable lead, but today Russian speed skaters and skeleton sliders teamed up to push the host country into a 13 point lead. Positions 3 to 6 are now separated by only 2 points with the USA hanging in there ahead of Germany, Canada and the Netherlands. Despite winning their 1st gold of 2014, Sweden dropped out of the top ten.

The scoring table is as follows;
1st 8 points
2nd 7
3rd 6
4th 5
5th 4
6th 3
7th 2
8th 1
If countries are level on points their single best result is the tiebreak

Notes from the OlyMADMan – 15 Feb 2014 – Olympic Day #9

USA Yesterday at the Olympics

  • Erin Hamlin won the first medal in a singles luge event for the USA, men or women. Hamlin placed second behind Britain’s Elizabeth Yarnold, earning a silver medal. USA slider Katie Uhlaender finished 4th, only 0.04 out of a bronze medal.
  • Hamlin’s bronze medal was the 13th for the United States in Sochi, which moved the USA into a tie for 1st in the medal standings, with Norway. Both have 4 golds, 3 silvers, and 6 bronzes to date. This uses the North American of ranking by, in order, total medals, golds, silvers, and bronzes.
  • Bode Miller finished 6th in the men’s super-combined. It was not the medal he was looking for, but it was Miller’s 9th top 10 finish in Olympic Alpine Skiing. This extends his US record, and ties him for 2nd among all Alpine skiiers, with 9, equalling Norway’s Lasse Kjus. Kjetil André Aamodt holds the Olympic best with 13.

USA Today at the Olympics

  • Alpine Skiing – Women’s Super G – The USA has won 2 gold medals in this event – Dianne Roffe in 1994 and Picabo Street in 1998, and a 3rd medal – Lindsey Vonn’s bronze in 2010. The USA ranks 3rd in the medal table in the event, behind Austria’s 6 medals and 3 golds, and Italy’s 4 medals and 2 golds. Julia Mancuso was 9th in 2010 and 11th in 2006. The event started at the Winter Olympics in 1988.
  • Cross-Country Skiing – Women’s Relay – The USA’s best finish is 7th, in both 1980 and 1984. The other top 10s were 8th in 1988, 9th in 1976, and 1994.
  • Short-Track Speed Skating – Men’s 1,000 metres – The USA has won 3 medals, all by Apolo Anton Ohno – silver/bronze/bronze in 2002/2006/2010 respectively. J. R. Celski was 8th in 2010. The USA is 3rd on the national medal list with 3, trailing Korea’s 9 and Canada’s 4.
  • Men’s Skeleton – The USA has won 4 medals, although 3 of them were in 1928 and 1948, on the Cresta Run at Saint Moritz. These were by the Heaton brothers, with Jack winning silvers in both 1928 and 1948, and Jennison winning gold in 1928. The other medal was a gold in 2002 by Jim Shea, Jr. Shea’s father skied cross-country for the USA at the 1964 Winter Olympics and his grandfather, Jack Shea, won 2 gold medals in speed skating (500, 1500) at the 1932 Winter Olympics. Jack Shea died a few weeks before the 2002 Winter Olympics when he was hit and killed by a drunk driver in his native Lake Placid. Jim Shea won the 2002 skeleton gold medal with a picture of his grandfather inside his helmet.
  • Ski Jumping – Men’s Large Hill – The best USA finish has been 4th by Jeff Hastings in 1984, with our only other top 10 an 8th by Jim Denney in 1980.
  • Speed Skating – Men’s 1500 metres – The USA has won 3 gold medals and 7 medals in this event, with the gold medals by Jack Shea in 1932, Eric Heiden in 1980, and Derek Parra in 2002. The USA is 4th on the national medal list in this event, well behind Norway’s 23 medals and 8 golds. Shani Davis won silver medals in both 2006 and 2010. In 2006 the USA won silver/bronze with Chad Hedrick taking bronze. Our other medal was a silver in 1988 by Eric Flaim. Flaim competed in speed skating in 1988 and 1992, and then turned to short-track and competed at the Winter Olympics in short-track in 1994 and 1998. In 1994 he won a silver medal in the short-track relay and is the only Olympian to have won Olympic medals in both long-track and short-track speed skating.
  • Ice Hockey – Men – USA vs Russia – The USA and Russia have played 3 times at the Winter Olympics, splitting the series as follows:

Against the former Soviet Union, the USA played 8 Olympic matches, losing 6. The two wins were quite dramatic, defeating them 3-2 in the 1960 Final Round en route to the gold medal, and again in 1980, winning 4-3 in the Final Round, the famed “Miracle on Ice,” before winning the gold medal by defeating Finland in the final match.

53 Years Ago Today

On 15 February 1961, the United States figure skating team was traveling to the World Championships to be held in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Their flight, Sabena 548, was to make a stopover in Brussels, Belgium. While preparing to land, the pilots aborted the landing and circled the runway, but never made it back, crashing in a marshy area near a farm. The plane burst into flames and all 72 people aboard died, including 18 members of the US figure skating team and 16 family members, coaches, and officials. The World Championships were cancelled.

Prior to the loss of the US team in Belgium, they had been dominant at the Winter Olympics and World Championships over the past decade. American men had won the Olympics in 1948-60, and the World Championships from 1948-59. American women won Olympic gold in 1956 and 1960, and World Championships in 1953 and 1955-60. The team struggled to even field an Olympic figure skating team at the 1964 Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, with many members of the team very young teenagers forced into senior level competition almost before their time. One of these skaters was Peggy Fleming, who finished 6th in Innsbruck, but would rise to the top and win a gold medal at the 1968 Winter Olympics.

Six members of the 1961 World Championship team had competed at the 1960 Winter Olympics in Squaw Valley: Ray Hadley, Jr and his sister, Ila Ray Hadley, Laurie Owen and her sister, Maribel Owen, and Dudley Richards and Maribel Vinson. All honor to their memory on this day.

Most Sibling Olympic Medals

With thanx to NBC Olympic Talk’s Nick Zaccardi who sent me off on this database query, let’s look at which brothers and sisters have won the most medals at the Olympic Games. Nick came up with this wondering about Ivica Kostelić (CRO), competing in the men’s Alpine super combined today, and going for his 4th Olympic medal. His sister, Janica, has 6 so that would give them 10. Nick was wondering how this stood on the all-time sibling medal list, with both siblings winning medals.

Well, oddly, the Winter record is held by the same guy (and his brother) who has the most Winter Olympic medals – Norway’s Ole Einard Bjørndalen. He has 12, equal to his countryman Bjørn Dæhlie, but Ole Einar’s brother, Dag, has one Olympic medal, so that gives them 13.

That is equal 3rd all-time behind the Mangiarotti’s, Italian fencing brothers with 16, and the Katos, Japanese gymnastic brothers with 14. The 2nd best at the Winter Olympics is 10 by brother/sister Di Centa.

Manuela and Giorgio Di Centa hold the record for a brother/sister pair at the Winter Olympics with their 10 medals, which the Kostelićs could equal today. Only Shirley and Jack Babashoff, with 11, have more brother/sister medals at the Summer Olympics.

And who has the most among sisters at the Olympics? You might not think it, but it’s the Williams sisters, Serena and Venus, in tennis, with 8 medals. And most sisters medals at the Winter Olympics? It’s a 3-way tie with 5 medals (not in the list below) – Marielle & Christine Goitschel (FRA-ASK), Ann Elen Skjelbreid & Liv Grete Skjelbreid-Poirée (NOR-BIA), and Manuela & Andrea Henkel (GER-CCS/BIA).

Here’s all the Olympic siblings with 6 or more medals, with both siblings winning a medal.
