AFTER A DRAMATIC SER^OF EVENTS
/
Immense desire, willpower and endurance carried Petro Mojdlc to her bronze medal, the first for Slovenia at the 21 st Winter Olympic Gomes In Vancouver, The greatest Slovenian cross-country skier of all time experienced the most difficult moments of her sporting career In the Olympic Pork In Whistler, but she persevered to the end. During a pre-quollfylng warm-up she slid off the Icy track at the most dangerous bend Into a three-metre-deep gully, crashing heavily against the rocks. After a medical check-up found no broken bones, she set off again for the starting line on her own responslblllt/. In severe pain she battled her way through to the final.
Results of later tests showed that she hod fractured four ribs and, at the some time, that one of the fractured ribs hod pierced her lung membrane and that air was escaping from the lungs Into the chest cavity, Mojdlc was then token by helicopter to hospital In Vancouver,
The ninth Slovenian medal at a Winter Olympic Gomes (the first was won by Alpine skier Jure Fronko at the 1984 Gomes In Sarajevo) Is proof of the fighting spirit of a woman who Is currently probably Slovenia's best athlete. If anyone wondered at Mojdlc's statement that, for her, his bronze medal was like a gold medal with Ittle diamonds In It, the doctors finally confirmed the truth of this, and the superhuman effort with which the skier from Brinje near Ljubljana hod fought her way to the medal.
Anyone who has ever fractured a single rib knows how much this hurts, I broke four of them. During the race It was really bod, I was In such pain that not even painkillers helped.
A few times I wanted to give up, but when you know what you're fighting for, you keep going. At the finish I was more exhausted than I hove ever been before. To put up with such pain for three hours, and to ski at the some time. Is something Incredible, In the circumstances I didn't expect the medal, but I really wanted It, I think that In normal circumstances I would hove won. Even my fellow-competitors hove told me that I deserved to win,' sold Mojdlc after the medals ceremony adding;' I wouldn't hove been able to stand It If hod finished fourth. But fortunately I got a medal. It still hasn't really sunk In, but there will be time for that,'
It seemed very unlikely that she would be able to take port In the race, but; 'That some moment, another port of me was saying that I couldn't give up and I began to shout; "I wont to go to the stortl I wont to go to the stortl" I knew that these Olympic Gomes were my lost opportunity, When they wanted to take me to the emergency department, I just kept shouting that I wanted to go to the start, because I didn't wont to hear that the Gomes were over for me,'
In the final, the most successful Slovenian crosscountry skier of all time showed the world what It means to hove on Iron will, and wrote a success story that embodies the Olympic spirit, Petra Mojdlc has won the prestigious Terry Fox Award for the courage she showed when she finished third In the Olympic women's sprint with five broken ribs. Fox founded a foundation which gives out award every year In Canada to the most courageous, unselfish and committed athlete who embodies the virtues of Terry Fox,
Tina
Maze
Slovenia's most successful Winter Olympian Double Silver
Following her success In the Super Giant Slalonn, she canne second In the Giant Slalonn connpe-tltion to win her second silver nnedal, With this nnedal, she said after the connpetltion, she has fulfilled her childhood dreann and her life's ann-bltion, This is the third Slovenian nnedal at these Olynnpic Gannes, the fiftieth Slovenian Olynnpic nnedal and the eleventh Slovenian nnedal at the Winter Olynnpics, Tina Maze Is also the first Slovenian athlete to win two individual nnedals at the Winter Olynnpics, topping the achievennent of ski junnper Matjaž Debelak, who took one Individual nnedal and one teann nnedal at the 1988 Winter
Olynnpics In Calgary With her two Olynnpic nnedals, Tina Maze has written one of the nnost exciting chapters of Slovenia's Olynnpic story 'Wowl I feel fantastlcl This is an enornnous success for nne and for Slovenia,' said the skier, 'Before I left for Vancouver I said to nnyself that I was going to go for two nnedals and I'nn thrilled to have got thenn. Now I can go back honne with nny childhood dreann and life's annbltion fulfilled. When I got to the Gannes I knew I was in good shape but I never expected to win two nnedals, because I have never nnanaged to ski well at big conn petitions,'
