Danibellerika Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 So yeah, if you had a chance to be a 2x world champ, would you forfeit one of those titles to have an Olympic medal that is not gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallycinnamon Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I'd choose 1x World Champion and 1x Olympic medal. Standing on an Olympic podium must be an extra special feeling for any athlete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiches Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I'd take option 2, Olympics are just special. Those world medals are the same every year, right? Are they also the same as Euros and 4CC medals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuzuangel Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 The real question is..4x world champion and no Olympic medal ala Kurt browning or 1x OGM and no world medals ala Adelina Sotnikova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Olympic medal doesn't necessarily prove your worth, but a good career does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How often will Adelina or Tara Lipinski get on the "best skaters" list? Meanwhile, Kurt and Michelle Kwan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moria Polonius Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I think this upcomig season GPF and Olympic golds would be the most desireable for Yuzu, Worlds gold would be a cherry on top but not essential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to choose I'd prefer he get the OGM and another world title, but GPF is good for momentum. Either way, if beggars can't be choosers, I want the OGM for him over all else.
