There are some skaters that were good enough to medal at worlds or Olympics but they never won the title in their own nationals, in their entire career.
Yagudin- never won the Russian nationals.
Never won the US title:
Paul Wylie (Oly silver)
Caryn Kadavy (world bronze)
Sarah Hughes (OGM, world bronze)
Holly Cook (world bronze, 1990)
Tonya Harding 'won' in 1994 but it was stripped from her due to her involvement in the attack on Nancy Kerrigan, so I am going to count her as 'did not win'.
Did Tim Goebel ever win the US national title?
Did the Zhangs ever win the Chinese national title?- may be after S&Z briefly retired?
