Nadia Comaneci.1961- , Romanian born gymnast, a favorite of fans and the media at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montréal, Québec, Canada, where she won three gold medals and a bronze medal in individual competition, and a silver medal for the Romanian team's second-place finish. At the Olympics she became the first gymnast to receive a perfect score from the judges, earning a 10.00 in the uneven-bars event, and she led Romania to the silver medal in the team competition.

Born in Oneti, Comaneci was noticed by renowned Romanian gymnastics coach Bela Karolyi (who later emigrated to the United States) when she was six years old. Karolyi recruited her for the Romanian junior gymnastics team, and in 1970 she won the national junior championship. Comaneci continued winning in her age group and collected other junior titles until she began senior competition in 1975, when she entered the European championships, winning the all-around title and three individual events..Microsoft® Encarta® Encyclopedia 99. © 1993-1998 Microsoft Corporation.
