    USA SHORT-TRACK SPEED SKATING OLYMPIC HISTORY US Olympic History: Short-track speedskating has been an Olympic medal sport since 1992, and the United States has always been one of the top nations, although the sport is now dominated by the Koreans, closely followed by the Chinese. In 1992 and 1994 the USA women were led by Cathy Turner who won the 500 metre sprint at both Olympics. The top American man, by far, has been Apolo Anton Ohno, who competed in 2002-10, winning 8 Olympic medals, with 2 golds, 2 silvers, and 4 bronzes. This is the most Olympic medals won by a short-track speedskater, and is also a USA record for the most medals in the Winter Olympics, in any sport.
