Possible Future Olympic Trivia
Posted: Sat Feb 29, 2020 3:05 pm
This is not a trivia question but its the basis of one that might be soon. There is a story in the news today about a citizen of Tonga who will make his third Olympic appearance this summer, assuming the Coronavirus doesn't get in the way. He has already appeared in both summer and winter games, in Taekwondo and cross-country skiing, though not winning any medals. He has qualified to be in the Tokyo Games this summer in Taekwondo and plans to attempt to qualify in kayaking. If he succeeds I believe he will become the only athlete to compete in three different sports, in both summer and winter games, AND in two sports in the same Games.
