In recent years, a succession of ever-younger champions in women's figure skating has brought ever-greater speed and intensity to all facets of the sport: the spins, the jumps and the careers. These days, the trip from prodigy status to the professional ranks to the pasture often doesn't take very long. Still, the saga of Oksana Baiul seems almost too dizzying and melodramatic to be real. Her adult life has only just begun, yet Baiul has already experienced more happiness and heartbreak, triumph and tragedy than most mortals get in a lifetime. And so at the age of 22, Baiul is staging a comeback. "I've been through a lot and I'm only 22," she says. "I just turned 22 and I'm just a kid. A child. But on the other hand, I'm not."

15. Oksana Baiul - Then & Now Article and interview (from ViewZone) on the skater s life and growth. http://www.viewzone.com/oksana.html

by Dan Eden first heard of Oksana Baiul in 1994 when she won the Gold Medal for figure skating at the Olympics. Within a few months, Simsbury, Connecticut was alive with opinion over the proposal to build a huge skating rink complex on some vacant tobacco land in the north end of town. Oksana had just won the World Championship in figure skating. Her name and story were linked with the skating rink much like an ex-"M*A*S*H" actor is used to sell Fords. Figure Skating rates second as the most popular sport in America. Football is number one. The rise in popularity of this largely spectator sport in the U.S. has been attributed to many things. It began with what has been jokingly called "the whack heard 'round the world" - the Tanya Harding incident - and was fueled by Fox Network's acquisition of NFL football from long standing CBS Sports. To fill the void, CBS ran its coverage of figure skating in early evening, family primetime. Its popularity and market share rapidly soared. Figure skating is an art that blends the strength and flexibility of ballet with the meditative focus of karate. Incredibly, even our national sport, baseball, doesn't come close to the ongoing popularity with both watching and participating in fun on the ice. But it wasn't always so. The proposed skating rink in Simsbury was part of a national trend to build rinks and skating complexes in response to the public's appetite. Newly built rinks were seeing their capacity reached with amateur and professional hockey and multi-level skating classes. Skating was replacing ballet or dance as a means of teaching grace to America's girls. And for every would-be Ice Princess, there was an ideal role model. Oksana Baiul seemingly came from nowhere to win the most coveted prize. Her youth and mastery of skating captivated young and old alike. This Cinderella persona was a role that was graciously assumed by Oksana. The growing public interest in skating that Oksana brought to America benefited the entire industry.
