No. 10 - Skategate I Figure skating champion Tonya Harding had high hopes of winning gold at the Winter Olympics in January 1994. She wanted to win so badly that she hired a group of goons to beat rival skater Nancy Kerrigan out of the competition. Despite her injuries, Kerrigan was able to compete on the U.S. Olympic team and she left the games with a silver medal. Harding finished eighth and was later banned from competitive skating for life by the U.S. Figure Skating Association.
