Summer Olympic gold record

Wikidata records 4 Summer Olympic gold medals in diving for United States across 1984 and 1988. 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 Greg Louganis (Q311332), not a reading of character. 1984: gold in diving at the 1984 Summer Olympics – men's 10 metre platform in diving. 1984: gold in diving at the 1984 Summer Olympics – men's 3 metre springboard in diving. 1988: gold in diving at the 1988 Summer Olympics – men's 10 metre platform in diving. 1988: gold in diving at the 1988 Summer Olympics – men's 3 metre springboard in diving.

The Jack of Clubs coordinate

Greg Louganis was born January 29 (1960-01-29). Month 1 and day 29 give solar value 24, which is the Jack of Clubs (The Creative Messenger). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1960 is unused. The Jack of Clubs does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Greg Louganis for United States. Quoted system copy for the Jack of Clubs, not a biography of Greg Louganis: You bring a new angle and stay long enough for someone to test it. You bring new thinking and inspiration. You're the one who shifts how people think about things. You have the gift of the "aha moment."

Greg Louganis in the public record

He is the only man and the second diver in Olympic history to sweep the diving events in consecutive Olympic Games. He has been called both "the greatest American diver" and "probably the greatest diver in history" as of 2015. Louganis was born in El Cajon, California, and is of Samoan and Swedish descent. His teenage biological parents placed him for adoption when he was eight months old and he was raised in California by his adoptive parents, Frances and Peter Louganis. His adoptive father was of Greek descent. Louganis reconnected with his biological father, Fouvale Lutu, in 1984. Through the help of DNA tests and his half-siblings, he found his biological mother in 2017. He started taking dance, acrobatics, and gymnastics classes at 18 months, after witnessing his sister's classes and attempting to join in.
