If Oksana had remained an amateur, I wonder how well she would've done during the 98 and 02 Olympics.

@barkingtree88 Yes I have wondered about this too. But Oksana suffered an injury to her kneecap. She kept skating because a whole season of appearances, tv, tours, pro competitions, had been planned around her. This "Swan" makes me cry every time I watch it, though. What a special gift she gave us. I do think that if she had stayed amateur, and could have had some recovery time, she might have amazed us later, certainly in 1998 and perhaps beyond.
