When Midori landed the 1st ladies triple axel at the 88 NHK trophy and then again at the 89 worlds, the game changed. All the ladies had to up their technical content to compete. Hence the falls at the 92 albertville olympics where the ladies were trying far more difficult jumps, some that they were not proficient enough at to complete them consistently. Just to compete with Midori and then Tonya.

@Candy Jones Tonya was a power skater. Tonya was ranked by Scott Hamilton as the #2 technical skater in the world behind Midori at the 92 Albertville olympics. With Midori's electrifying Long Program at the 88 Calgary olympics, she started a change in ladies figure skating from ice capades type artistry skating to power skating. Even though Midori was downgraded in artistry marks in her 88 calgary olympics LP, Christopher Dean, of Torvill and Dean, who was doing the olympics commentary for australian TV said Midori's skating was the artistry. The 92 albertville olympics was far superior technically in ladies skating then the 88 calgary olympics. The point is Tonya's skating was her artistry, doing power moves like a triple axel and triple lutz combinations that Nancy could only dream about. When Tonya was on, like at the 91 US nationals and 91 skate america, Nancy and Kristi could not touch her. Only Midori could skate with Tonya and beat her if both skated cleanly.

Kerrigan was placed 2nd in the SP so she was already a mile ahead of Harding, who was placed 6th behind Hubert, Bonaly, and Ito.

To me that sounds impossible, even if she was placed 3rd in the LP, she wouldn’t have a medal.

These would be the people who would trow out the Picassos, the Van Goghs, the Munchs, because they are not as technically accurate or technically challenging to the untrained eye as some photocopied realistic drawing or painting. I pity you for your lack of artistic sensibility. This woman was favored by so many not only because of her love for ice-skating, but her grace, specially when falling, failing and losing, a very fundamental construct and aesthetic needed in sportsmanship, specially Olympics. You can be a robot, you can flip one time more, but you'll never understand what grace is and the beauty of what makes us human, and humble above all, and this girl did. That's why she was loved, and desperate psychopaths and their petty enablers won't change that.
