attyfan said:If it is "less special" for Cohen to win after one (Olys) try, is the "specialness" of winning an OGM lessened further for those who have tried twice, such as Kwan and Slutskaya? Or. does being a multiple Oly medalist count for something?
Personally I really appreiate those who hang in there and keep trying as opposed to those who "win the OGM and run". That's not meant to take anything away from the OGM winning skate or skater. There is something to be said for the harder and longer the struggle the sweeter the reward. For example, Liz Manley's OSM performance in Calgary probably was more rewarding than Witt's second OGM was to her. Same goes fo Paul Wylie.
