Well, this is the potential problem with the Team Event at the Olympics is that when people talk about having 'won' an Olympic medal, it can be misleading because the reader or viewer who hears that might not know whether it was for individual performance or not.
I also got tired of Patrick Chan repeatedly going on after the Men's event in Sochi about how he has won 2 Olympic silvers in his career. It makes him sound like he won 2 Olympic silver medals on his own like Elvis Stojko and Brian Orser, and it's not the same thing.
That's one reason why I hope the Team Event is abolished before the next Olympics so that it doesn't muddy the waters anymore.
You should be more tired how Carolina gets medals to her like free prizes at the bottom of a box of Crackerjacks!
