As a young girl, Nancy Kerrigan had a dream: to become a world-class figure skater. With the support of her father and her mother, who is legally blind, she skated into the spotlight by winning a bronze medal at the 1992 Winter Olympics and a gold medal at the 1993 National championships.
Then disaster struck.
A frightening attack before the 1994 National championships injured her knee and threatened her Olympic hopes. But with courage and determination, Nancy battled back to compete at the 1994 Winter Olympics. Win or lose, Nancy Kerrigan has the heart of a champion. This is her inspiring story.
