Note: Maria Butyrskaya and Olga Markova was active before the GP was created. Maria has a win at Skate Canada in 1992 and Olga has a 2nd place from Skate Canada in 1993 that are not counted here.
Elena Ivanova was indeed a strange situation... talented jumper... triple Lutz triple toe... prolific for years on the world junior stage... wonder why she was kept junior after winning gold in 96? She skated a few senior events in the fall of 98 ... finished dead last at 98 NHK... was 98 junior worlds after that? Or would that have been earlier that year? At any rate she vanished after that NHK... reportedly due to injury but who knows if that was true...
