B. 1951-09-2, Yoshkar-Ola, Mary El, Russia, represented the Soviet Union
Basketball (1 gold)
1976 HP
Women's Team gold 3200
3200

She played for Dinamo Riga in 1976, and used her (presumably Latvian) married name, so the MADMen class her as Latvian. However, she was born in (a part of) Russia, and she played for Leningrad before 1974 and Moskva after 1977, so I shall class her as Russian.

1500

Olympic Competitor nr 1633

He was a member of the Golf Club de Paris and is listed as a member of the French team by the MADMen. I class him as British. Since he was living in Europe at the time of his Olympic participation, I do not class him as Indian, despite him being born there.
