Romania has a long Olympic tradition in rowing and gymnastics, especially in women’s gymnastics where they are one of the most successful countries in Olympic history. Indeed, Romania’s most successful Olympic athlete is gymnast Nadia Comâneci.

She finished the Montreal competition with seven perfect scores, gold medals in the beam, uneven bars and all-around competitions and a bronze medal in the floor exercise. Four years later at the 1980 Olympic Games in Moscow, Soviet Union she continued her winning ways with individual gold on the beam and floor and a silver in the all-around competition. She also won team silver medals at both the 1976 and 1980 Games to finish her Olympic career with nine medals in total. Other successful Romanian gymnasts are Simona Amanar the all-around gold medallist at the 2000 Games in Sydney, Australia, Daniela Silivas a triple gold medallist at the 1988 Games in Seoul, South Korea and Catalina Ponor the individual champion on beam and floor at the 2004 Games in Athens, Greece.
Rower Elisabeta Lipa is one of the most decorated rowers in the history of the Games. She won five gold medals, two silvers and one bronze in a career that spanned 20 years. She won her first gold medal at the 1984 Games in double sculls and won her last as part of Romania’s eight at the 2004 Games in Athens, Greece.
