YES!!!
Finally the Dutch speed skater has won a medal. Since Albertville (1992) he had missed quite a few medals in some very sorry ways.
Albertville: 500 meters: 4th at 1/100 of a second
World Championships (2001): 1000 meters: 4th at 1/100 of a second
Salt Lake City: 500 meters: 4th at 2/100 of a second
But he has his revenge at his last chance, as he not only won a medal at the 1000 meters a few moments ago, he won the gold medal with a new world record (something like 1:07.18)! (And he's now also the man who has skated the fasted lap ever: 24.6 seconds)
I am so happy for him!
