Which country will be the next to have a gold in history in each skating discipline
Now that Russia is officialy the first country to ever win an Olympic gold in each skating discipline which country will be the next? Right now the U.S lacks only pairs. Canada lacks only men. France I believe lack only ladies. Germany lacks only dance I believe. Britian lacks only the pairs. Austria lacks only the ice dancing gold. So that is atleast 6 countries with 3 out of 4. So who will be next, and how far into the future might it be.
Also should we now add needing the team gold to complete that set.
I think it will be a long time, perhaps atleast 20 years, before any country joins the club. I dont see a pairs gold for the U.S on the horizon. Canada could win a mens gold with someone like Nguyen or another up and comer, but not sure it will happen. We do still have a strong mens program going though. So Canada is probably the most likely. France does not look likely to do it in ladies anytime soon. The other countries seem out of gold contention in any event for the moment, other than possibly Germany in pairs.
