Historical note: Stefan Schmid’s victory on 22–23 July 2000 came during an unusually busy chapter of his life. The 30-year-old was writing his own training programmes without a regular coach, running a newly opened fitness and rehabilitation centre, and caring for his nine-week-old son Eric. With Frank Müller supporting him during the competition, he won by 481 points and secured his first Olympic appearance.
