Scott Hamilton was very sick as a child. He did not grow at the same rate as other children. Eventually, the illness disappeared; it is said that he began to grow because he ice skated. It was said that the cold air in the ice rinks and all the physical activity helped to miraculously cure him. He was always small in stature, but he did grow.

From 1981 through 1984, Scott won every U.S. National Championship and every world championship. The highlight of his amateur figure skating career was when he won the 1984 Olympics. He was the first American male figure skater to win a medal in skating since 1960.

(04/12/2010) - COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The Haydenettes, 18-time U.S. champions, captured their first world medal -- a bronze -- last week at the 2010 ISU World Synchronized Skating Championships in Colorado Springs, Colo. The podium finish marks the second time a U.S. team has won a world medal, as Miami University took the silver in 2007. The Crystallettes, the 2010 U.S. silver medalists, finished ninth out of 23 teams.
