Russia may quit Salt Lake City after a string of decisions against its athletes. Leonid Tyagachiev accused the IOC of ingratitude after cross country skier Larissa Lazutina was disqualified for high hemoglobin levels. South Korea protests Kim Dong-sung disqualification and threatens action.
Marie-Reine Le Gougne told investigators she voted for the Russian pairs team on merit. Her attorneys said she testified for three hours that there was no deal or vote swapping and she named Didier Gailhaguet only to deflect further pressure.
The medal results include Alpine skiing men where Stephan Eberharter led Austria to gold and Bode Miller took silver for the United States. In cross country, Germany won the women's 4x5km relay with Manuela Henkel and teammates, while Norway took silver and Switzerland bronze. In ladies figure skating Sarah Hughes of Great Neck led with gold, followed by Russia's Irina Slutskaya for silver and Michelle Kwan for bronze. Canada earned a gold, the United States silver, and Sweden bronze in the event.
Hughes, 21, wins Olympic gold after Kwan falters in the free skate. Slutskaya earns silver with a cautious program while Cohen finishes off the podium. The upset crowns Hughes as the first American to claim Olympic gold in years amid nerves and high drama.
