Olympic-Related Sites

The best site for statistical information on the web is at http://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/. You should bookmark it and use it frequently during Sochi for information on what has gone before.

Yes, I do have something to do with it. The site is work done by me and a group of my associates who we call the OlyMADMen – there are about a dozen of us, led by Jeroen Heijmans (NED), Arild Gjerde (NOR), and Hilary Evans(GBR/Wales) (and Hilary is actually James Hilary Evans, to clear that up). Other main contributors to the site are Taavi Kalju (EST), Wolf Reinhardt (GER), Martin Kellner (AUT), Ralf Regnitter (GER), Paul Tchir (CAN), Ralph Schlüter (GER), Mørten Aarlia Torp (NOR), Magne Teigen (NOR), and David Foster (GBR). A few other Olympic stat freaks also help us out – Christian Tugnoli (ITA), Ove Karlsson (SWE), Stein Opdahl (NOR), Carl-Johan Johansson (SWE), Paweł Wudarski (POL), and others.

sports-reference.com/olympics is based on our own private website, which we use as our research site – its located at www.olympedia.org. Sorry, but for now it’s a private site, but we can allow you free access if you want it – just send us an email ([email protected]) or post your email below. You’ll love it, I promise you, if you like the Olympics. Olympedia and sports-reference are similar, but different. Information goes on Olympedia first and gets picked up by sports-reference later, after some editing.

Timing Accuracy at the Olympic Games

In the women’s downhill this morning, Slovenian Tina Maze and Dominique Gisin of Switzerland tied for the gold medal with a time of 1:41.57. Couldn’t the timing equipment have broken that tie by carrying it out to 1/1000th of a second?

Yes, it could have, but Alpine skiing chooses not to do so. In fact, the timing is so precise it could probably measure to the 1/1,000,000th but this belies the fact that course measurement cannot be that accurate.

At Alpine skiing downhill speeds 1/100th of a second is about 10 inches or 25 cm, and 1/1000th would be about 1 inch or 2.5 cm. How accurate is the finish line? If Maze finished on the left side of the finish, and Gisin on the right side, is that accurate enough to measure to 1/1000th, especially when the start line is 3,000 metres away. So if you measure to 1/1000th would you be penalizing one skiier for finishing on one side of the course and not the other, without them really knowing which side is shorter? You could be.

Other Olympic sports have realized this as well and lessened the precision with which they measure finishes. Swimming used to break ties by measuring to the 1/1000th second, but in 1972 at München Gunnar Larsson of Sweden and American Tim McKee seemingly tied in the men’s 400 individual medley in swimming. They were both timed in 4:31.98 but the precision timer broke the tie and gave the gold medal to Larsson, with a time of 4:31.981 to McKee’s 4:31.983 – 2/1000ths of a second. However, swimming officials later reconsidered this, when they were informed that if Larsson’s lane had one extra coat of paint on it, it would have made the difference by shortening the distance he swam over 8 laps and to his touch. So swimming now calls a tie to the 1/100th a tie for that position – however, the 1972 400IM result was not changed.

This famously occurred again in the women’s 100 freestyle in 1984 at Los Angeles when Carrie Steinseifer and Nancy Hogshead tied in 55.92. The stadium scoreboard listed that time for both but had Steinseifer 1st and Hogshead 2nd initially, so presumably Steinseifer was slightly faster to the 1/1000th, but that mistake was corrected and they were both correctly given gold medals.

At the 1980 Winter Olympics Swede Thomas Wassberg won the gold medal in the men’s cross-country 15 km, defeating Finland’s Juha Mieto. Wassberg was timed in 41:57.63 to Mieto’s 41:57.64. The skiing federation (FIS) realized that this was a ridiculous precision to use for a race lasting over 40 minutes. Cross-country ski time trials have since been timed only to the 1/10th of a second, although in mass start events, photo finishes will be used to break ties.

A similar finish occurred at the 2012 London Olympics in the women’s triathlon in one of the most stirring finishes one could ever see, as Switzerland’s Nicola Spirig and Sweden’s Lisa Nordén raced side-by-side down the last kilometre of the race, neither runner able to shake the other. Spirig was given the win, and the gold medal, with both runners officialy timed in 1-59:48. To observers there, it seemed impossible to choose between them at the finish line, but Spirig was adjudged to have won by 0.009 seconds per the official timing system. That is a ludicrous margin to use in a race lasting 2 hours, and hopefully the triathlon federation will correct this in the future. Ideally they should correct it retroactively and award Spirig and Nordén co-gold medals.

Some sports do time to the 1/1000th of a second – notably at the Winter Olympics, luge. The races are so close that this precision is necessary to separate the sliders occasionally. The track is narrow enough that there should be little difference in where the sliders finish. Speed skating also breaks ties in the 500 metres to the 1/1000th although official times are given in 1/100ths. At the Summer Olympics, cycling uses 1/1000ths in some of the shorter track races.

So Maze and Gisin tied in the women’s downhill – that’s a good and just decision.

Top 10s in Olympic Alpine Skiing

No, she didn’t win the downhill, nor did she even win a medal, but Super Jules – aka Julia Mancuso – did place 8th in the event. And that by itself was an accomplishment. It was the 7th time that Mancuso had placed in the top 10 at an Olympic Alpine skiing event, and that is the best ever for a US woman. In fact it equalled the USA best coming into Sochi, but Bode Miller’s 8th place in men’s downhill was his 8th time in the top 10. Here is the list of American Alpine skiiers with 3 or more top 10 finishes at the Winter Olympics.

Now overall, Mancuso is =5th among Olympic women with her 7 top 10s. The leader in this regard for Olympic female Alpine skiiers is surprising – Martina Ertl-Renz, who has 3 Olympic medals, but never a gold. The overall leader is as expected, Norway’s Kjetil André Aamodt, with 13. Aamodt also has the most Olympic Alpine skiing medals all-time with 8. Bode Miller is currently =3rd on the men’s list with his 8 top 10s. Here’s the list of all Olympic Alpine skiiers with 7 or more top 10s.

We were also asked if this has occurred or will occur in Sochi. So far, no, but Dutchman Jan Smeekens just missed it with his silver medal in the 500 metres. He turned 27 the next day, 11 February. Hard to predict if it will happen in Sochi. There are 96 entered Winter Olympians in Sochi with a birthday occurring between today and 23 February. We didn’t see any obvious medal contenders on their birthdays, but one never knows.

Ties for Medals at the Winter Olympics

Ties at the Winter Olympics – how often have they happened? Tina Maze (SLO) and Dominique Gisin (SUI) tied for first this morning in the Alpine women’s downhill.

This is the 8th time at the Winter Olympics that 2 gold medals will have been awarded – note the phrasing as one of them was not a tie. The previous 7 times this has occurred were as follows:

 

[table]

Year,Sport,Gender,Event

1928,Speedskating,Men,500 metres

1956,Speedskating,Men,1500 metres

1960,Speedskating,Men,1500 metres

1972,Luge,Men,Doubles

1998,Bobsledding,Men,Two

2002,Cross-Country Skiing,Men,Pursuit

2002,Figure Skating,Mixed,Pairs

[/table]

 

As is well known, the 2002 pairs figure skating was not exactly a tie, but a second gold medal was awarded after the controversial original finish when Canadians Jamie Salé and David Pelletier were ranked second behind the Russian pair of Yelena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze.

There have been 25 previous ties for a medal at the Winter Olympics – 7 for gold, 11 for silver, and 7 for bronze. In 1968, three American female speed skaters had a three-way tie for the silver medal in the 500 metres.

At the Summer Olympics, a tie for first, or two or more gold medals awarded, has occurred 26 times. One of those was also controversial – the 1992 women’s solo synchronized swimming where American Kristen Babb-Sprague was initially ruled the champion, but a judging error caused officials to elevate Canadian Sylvie Fréchette to equal first with Babb-Sprague.

This morning’s Alpine skiing downhill tie is the first time this has ever happened in that sport. However, it is the 5th tie for a medal in Olympic Alpine skiing history:

Year,Gender,Event,Tied Place

1948,Men,Downhill,Tie for third

Most Sports Winning Medals by Nations

The United States won its first ever medal in singles’s luge yesterday with Erin Hamlin’s bronze in women’s singles. The USA has won luge medals before but only in men’s doubles. The USA has never won a medal in biathlon but that is the only sport missing from the American Winter Olympic trophy case. How does that stand compared to other nations?

First of all, as we discussed on this blog almost a month ago, we will consider sports as all the sports and disciplines on the Olympic Program. Thus we will use 15 sports – Alpine skiing, biathlon, bobsledding, cross-country skiing, curling, figure skating, freestyle skiing, ice hockey, luge, Nordic combined, short-track speed skating, skeleton, ski jumping, snowboarding, and speed skating. We’ll skip military ski patrol, which was only an Olympic medal sport in 1924 and is somewhat similar to biathlon.

So given that, which nation has won medals in the most sports? Has any nation won medals in all the sports? The answers are the USA, sorta, and no, sorta.

Here is the list of all nations who have won medals in 10 or more sports:

[table]

NOC,###,Missing Sports

USA,14,Biathlon

GER,13,Curling/Short-Track

AUT,12,Curling/Ice Hockey/Short-Track

CAN,12,Luge/Nordic Combined/Ski Jumping

RUS,12,Curling/Ski Jumping/Short-Track

FIN,11,Bobsled/Luge/Short-Track/Skeleton

ITA,11,Curling/Freestyle/Ice Hockey/Ski Jumping

SUI,11,Biathlon/Luge/Short-Track/Speed Skating

SWE,11,Bobsled/Luge/Short-Track/Skeleton

NOR,10,Bobsled/Ice Hockey/Luge/Short-Track/Skeleton

URS,10,Curling/Freestyle/Short-Track/Skeleton/Snowboarding

[/table]

So the USA leads with medals in 14 of the 15 available Olympic Winter sports. Or do we?

Look at the Soviet Union down at the bottom of that list with medals in 10 sports. They are missing curling, freestyle, short-track, skeleton, and snowboarding. But none of those sports were on the Olympic Program when the Soviet Union existed as a nation. So one can say that the former Soviet Union is the only nation to have won Winter Olympic medals in every sport on the Olympic Program available to them.

Notes from the OlyMADMan – 12 Feb 2014 – Olympic Day #6

USA Yesterday at the Olympics

  • The biggest news was likely Erin Hamlin winning a bronze medal in the luge singles. No USA woman had ever won a medal in luge at the Olympics, with the previous best 4th by Courtney Zablocki in 2006.
  • In women’s women’s freestyle skiing slopestyle Devon Logan won a silver medal. This event was new to the Olympics.
  • Sophie Caldwell made the final of the women’s cross-country sprint and finished 6th, the best ever finish by a USA woman in Olympic cross-country skiing. Medal favorite Kikkan Randall had what the French refer to in the Tour de France as “un jour sans” and failed to make the semi-finals, placing 18th.

 

USA Today at the Olympics

  • Alpine Skiing Women’s Downhill – USA has won 7 medals in this event, 3rd all-time, trailing Austria (16) and Switzerland (9). USA has won 1 gold medal in the event – Lindsey Vonn in 2010. The first medal won by the USA in downhill was a silver medal in 1960 by Penny Pitou. Julia Mancuso is back after a silver medal in this event in 2010 behind Vonn. USA has had two top 10s in the event thrice – 2010 with Vonn and Mancuso, 2006 with Mancuso (7) and Vonn (=8), and 1980 with Heidi Preuss (4) and Cindy Nelson (=7). Last medal before 2010 was Picabo Street, a silver in 1994.
  • Figure Skating Mixed Pairs – USA has won 6 medals in this event, =4th all-time with Russia, trailing the Soviet Union (12), Germany (7), and Canada (7). The USA has never won a gold medal in pairs. The silver medals won (3) were by Beatrix Loughran and Sherwin Badger in 1932, Karol and Peter Kennedy in 1952, and Kitty and Peter Carruthers in 1984. Our last medal in this event was a bronze in 1988 by Jill Watson and Peter Oppegard.
  • Luge Men’s Doubles – USA has won 4 medals in this event, 2 silvers and 2 bronzes. In both 1998 and 2002 we won silver and bronze for our 4 medals. Since then we had an 8th by Preston Griffall / Dan Joye in 2006 and a 6th by Christian Niccum / Dan Joye in 2010. USA is =5th for most medals with the former West Germany, trailing, in order, the former East Germany (GDR) (8), and Austria, Germany, and Italy with 7 medals.
  • Nordic Combined Men’s Individual Normal Hill – Comes off an awesome performance at Vancouver in Nordic Combined with a silver medal in this event by Johnny Spillane, with Todd Lodwick placing 4th, and Billy Demong 6th. That was the first medal ever won by the United States in Nordic Combined, but 11 days later, Demong won gold and Spillane silver on the large hill individual event. This is technically only the second time this event has been held, as the Nordic combined individual events were changed in 2010 to a normal hill and a large hill event. Previously the skiiers/jumpers had contested an individual event (on normal hill) and sprint event (on large hill), but there were other differences than just the hills.
  • Snowboarding Women’s Halfpipe – Event has been held 4 times and the US has won half (6) of the available medals (12), and half of the gold medals (2 of 4). The golds were by Kelly Clark in 2002 and Hannah Teter in 2006. In 2010 Teter and Clark returned to win a silver (Teter) and bronze (Clark). They are the only 2 women to win 2 medals in this event. In 2006, USA also went 1-2 in the event with Teter winning and Gretchen Bleiler 2nd.
  • Speed Skating Men’s 1,000 metres – The USA has won this event half of the time it has been held – 5/10. USA has won 8 medals, with Netherlands and Soviet Union 2nd with 5 medals. Shani Davis has won this event in both 2006 and 2010 and is favored to win again. If he wins, he joins three women who have won the same event 3 consecutive times at the WOG – Sonja Henie (women’s figure skating 1928-36), Bonnie Blair (women’s speed skating 500 metres 1988-94), and Claudia Pechstein (women’s speed skating 5,000 metres 1994-2002). See notes below on possible records to be set by Davis.

 

If Shani Davis Wins the Men’s 1,000 m Speed Skating …

  • He wins his 3rd consecutive gold medal in the event, only done at the Winter Olympics previously by Sonja Henie (women’s figure skating 1928-36), Bonnie Blair (women’s speed skating 500 metres 1988-94), and Claudia Pechstein (women’s speed skating 5,000 metres 1994-2002). All were in individual events.
  • He becomes the first male speed skater to win gold medals at 3 consecutive Winter Olympics, not just in the same event. Among women this has been done by Blair and Pechstein, German Anni Freisinger-Postma (2002-10), and Dutchwoman Ireen Wüst (2006-14).
  • Nine athletes have won the same event 4 or more times at the Summer Olympics, but in individual events, only Al Oerter (athletics discus throw 1956-68) and Carl Lewis (athletics long jump 1984-96) have done so (using very strict criteria). 48 athletes have won the same event 3 times at the Summer Olympics, so Davis would be tied for 10th overall in all Olympic events, and tied for 3rd overall in individual Olympic events.
  • Among US athletes, only Bonnie Blair has won 3 consecutive gold medals in the same event at the WOG, and it was in an individual event. As noted above, at the SOG, Oerter and Lewis have won the same individual event 4 times consecutively. US athletes have won 3 consecutive golds in the same event 15 times at the SOG, with Michael Phelps doing it 4 times in London. Of these 6 occurred in individual events, twice by Phelps in London (100 fly, 200 IM).
  • At the WOG, two athletes have won gold medals at 5 consecutive Games – Claudia Pechstein (GER-SSK) and Georg Hackl (GER-LUG). Seven athletes have won gold medals at 4 consecutive WOG, but only 2 men – Aleksandr Tikhonov (URS-BIA) and Gillis Grafström (SWE-FSK) (counting his win in 1920). 14 men and 12 women have won gold medals at 3 consecutive WOG.
  • Davis would also become only the 2nd American to win gold medals at 3 consecutive WOG, joining Bonne Blair, as noted above.
