Summer Olympic gold record
Wikidata records 3 Summer Olympic gold medals in competitive swimming for United States across 1972. Only Summer Games gold medals count here. Winter-only careers and single-gold athletes are out of this pack. The medal list is a public award record for Cathy Carr (Q287379), not a reading of character. 1972 1972 Summer Olympics: gold in 1972 Summer Olympics in Q212434. 1972: gold in swimming at the 1972 Summer Olympics – women's 100 metre breaststroke in competitive swimming. 1972: gold in swimming at the 1972 Summer Olympics – women's 4 × 100 metre medley relay in competitive swimming.

The 5 of Clubs coordinate
Cathy Carr was born May 27 (1954-05-27). Month 5 and day 27 give solar value 18, which is the 5 of Clubs (The Dynamic Innovator). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1954 is unused. The 5 of Clubs does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Cathy Carr for United States. Quoted system copy for the 5 of Clubs, not a biography of Cathy Carr: You pressure-test a stale idea in public and let the better one win. Your mind craves novelty, variety, and freedom. You get bored easily and need constant stimulation. You're the one who disrupts stale thinking.
Cathy Carr in the public record
Carr (born May 27, 1954), also known by her married name Cathy West, is an American former competition swimmer, Olympic champion, and former world record-holder in two events. Carr was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and graduated from Highland High School in Albuquerque. She trained for the Olympics with the Coronado Swim Club under 1960 Olympic gold medalist Mike Troy. Carr represented the United States at the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, Germany. Individually, she won a gold medal in the women's 100-meter breaststroke, setting a new world of 1:13.58 in the final, and besting Soviet Galina Prozumenshchikova by 1.41 seconds. She won a gold medal swimming the breaststroke leg for the first-place U.S. team in the women's 4×100-meter medley relay, together with her teammates Melissa Belote (backstroke), Deena Deardurff (butterfly), and Sandy Neilson (freestyle). The American medley relay team set a new world record of 4:20.75 in the event final, beating the East German and West German teams by 4.16 and 5.71 seconds, respectively. She held the long course world record in the 100-meter breaststroke (set at the 1972 Olympics) from September 2, 1972, to August 22, 1974.
