In 98 Kwan was expected to win the Oly title and Tara snuck in and won.
In 02 Kwan and Irina were expected to win with Kwan having the advantage. Sarah snuck in from nowhere and won.
In 06 Sasha and Irina were expected to win. Shizuka came in and won.
In 10 this is where I saw the expected skater winning. Yuna.
In 14 Yuna or Mao were or even Lip were expected winners. Adelina came in and won.
Of the last 5 Oly cycles only once did the expected skater win.
How do you feel about this coming cycle? Can Caro sneak in? Or a Canuck (maybe Osmond, Daleman)? What about someone like Mihara? One of the new senior Russians?
The element of surprise can be nice.... Kwan was dominating leading up to that 98 cycle.... and Tara got in there. In this case Tara had a World title to her credit as did Shizuka... but Sarah and Adelina had no word titles/medals.
