The 1994 Winter Olympics figure skating scandal, a saga of rivalry, ambition, and violence, remains etched in the collective memory, a stark reminder of the dark underbelly that can lurk beneath the glittering surface of elite sports.

At the heart of this drama were Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding, two American figure skaters whose contrasting personas and backgrounds fueled a fierce rivalry.
