**** me, that's a smeller.
1) Pfft. Guess it must be fairly recent. 1995?
2) Seem to remember Marc Rosset (sp?) winning once.
3) Montreal?
4) Jesus. Spitz?
5) 1968. Us, Yugoslavia, Italy & (I think) the Soviet Union, who Italy rather quaintly beat on a coin-toss in the semis.
6) 200m, long jump, high jump, javelin, 800m, shot put, 100m hurdles
7) 0?
8) 1?
9) Let's see: Sampras, Kraijcek (sp?), Ivanisevic, Hewitt & Federer, so that makes 5.
10) 0?

Waiting for someone to do the "cooking, cleaning, nagging, etc." gag.
1) Aussie rules...jeez...1996
2) must have been recent...Rosset in Barcelona?
3) Calgary
4) Leif Eriksson
5) 1968
6)100m hurdles, 200m, 800m, high jump, long jump, shot put, javelin
7) depends...if you count all times someone competing for Spain having been hung with Gold, it's quite a lot. If you discount that German cheat, I think it's only one, actually. Women's slalom, I think it was.
8) None. Europe all the way.
9) Sampras, Federer, and 3 one offs...5
10) Handball...FO...1
