Kerri Strug needed to score at least a 9.5 on her second vault during the 1996 Atlanta Olympics for the U.S. women's gymnastics team to secure the gold medal. She achieved a score of 9.712, despite landing awkwardly and injuring her ankle. Her courageous performance under pressure became iconic and helped clinch the team's historic victory.
