That was Nadia Comaneci at the 1976 Summer Games in Montreal.

Yes it was Nadia Comaneci at the 1976 Summer Games in Montreal, Mexico and Cristina Rubio: at the age of 13.

NO! Firstly, Nadia was 14, not 13, when she received her perfect 10 at the Montreal Olympics to become the first female gymnast to receive a perfect 10.

Albert Sequin received the first ever gymnastics perfect 10, 52 years earlier at the 1924 Paris Summer Olympics for the side vault.

IT was Nadia Comaneci. When Nadia Comaneci, the Romanian gymnast, scored the first-ever perfect 10 in gymnastics at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, the scoreboard was not ready for this perfect score and showed only 1.00. Seven perfect 10s helped Nadia win 3 gold medals, 1 silver medal and 1 bronze medal.

It wasn't Nadia Comaneci. When the first perfect 10 was done, she wasn't even born.

In 1924, Albert Sequin won gold in the men's sidehorse. His score was 10000, so he was the first to get a perfect 10.

The Romanian gymnast, Nadia Comaneci (nod-yuh keo-man-eech) was the first Olympian to be awarded a perfect score of 10. She got 6 more 10s, just to prove the point.

This is a bit misleading, though, as Albert Sequin in 1924 earned a perfect score of 10,000, but that is not '10'.

So, the answer is: Albert Sequin earned the first perfect score in Olympic gymnastics, but Nadia Comaneci earned the first perfect '10'.
