La championne olympique Sylvie Daigle a particip\u00e9 \u00e0 quatre Jeux olympiques d\u2019hiver dans deux disciplines de patinage de vitesse, remportant deux m\u00e9dailles. Elle a connu ses plus grands succ\u00e8s en courte piste \u00e0 Albertville 1992<\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n

Daigle a repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 le Canada \u00e0 quatre Jeux olympiques d\u2019hiver (sans compter sa pr\u00e9sence dans un sport de d\u00e9monstration), faisant ses d\u00e9buts en longue piste \u00e0 Lake Placid 1980<\/a>, avant de participer aux Jeux de Sarajevo 1984<\/a>. Des op\u00e9rations au genou subies en 1985 et en 1987 l\u2019ont forc\u00e9e \u00e0 passer du longue piste au courte piste. Elle a ensuite disput\u00e9 les Jeux de Calgary 1988<\/a>, d\u2019Albertville 1992 et de Lillehammer 1994<\/a>. \u00c0 Calgary, le courte piste en \u00e9tait \u00e0 ses d\u00e9buts olympiques et \u00e9tait un sport en d\u00e9monstration. Daigle y a remport\u00e9 cinq m\u00e9dailles (l\u2019or au 1500 m\u00e8tres, l\u2019argent au 1000 m\u00e8tres, l\u2019argent au 3000 m\u00e8tres, le bronze au 500 m\u00e8tres et le bronze au relais 3000 m\u00e8tres).<\/p>\n

C\u2019est quand le sport a officiellement int\u00e9gr\u00e9 le programme des Jeux, \u00e0 Albertville, que Daigle a connu ses plus grands succ\u00e8s olympiques. En plus d\u2019\u00eatre choisie pour porter le drapeau canadien \u00e0 la c\u00e9r\u00e9monie d\u2019ouverture, elle faisait partie de l\u2019\u00e9quipe canadienne de relais qui avait remport\u00e9 six titres de suite aux Championnats du monde et 10 des 11 derniers titres mondiaux au relais 3000 m\u00e8tres. Le duel anticip\u00e9 entre le Canada et la Chine (d\u00e9tentrice du record du monde) ne s\u2019est jamais mat\u00e9rialis\u00e9, les Chinoises \u00e9tant \u00e9limin\u00e9es en demi-finale. En finale, Daigle et ses co\u00e9quipi\u00e8res ont \u00e9cart\u00e9 les Am\u00e9ricaines et remport\u00e9 la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or. Individuellement, Daigle aspirait aux grands honneurs au 500 m\u00e8tres, mais a termin\u00e9 18e<\/sup> apr\u00e8s une collision avec l\u2019Am\u00e9ricaine Cathy Turner en ronde pr\u00e9liminaire.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 sa derni\u00e8re pr\u00e9sence olympique \u00e0 Lillehammer 1994, Daigle et sa co\u00e9quipi\u00e8re Nathalie Lambert<\/a> \u00e9taient les deux seules repr\u00e9sentantes canadiennes qui avaient remport\u00e9 l\u2019or deux ans plus t\u00f4t au relais. Les Canadiennes se sont pr\u00e9sent\u00e9es en Norv\u00e8ge \u00e9tant invaincues dans les grands rendez-vous en six ans. En finale du relais 3000 m\u00e8tres, Christine Boudrias<\/a> a heurt\u00e9 la bande, ce qui a priv\u00e9 le Canada d\u2019une m\u00e9daille d\u2019or. La disqualification des Chinoises a permis \u00e0 Daigle et \u00e0 son \u00e9quipe de mettre la main sur la m\u00e9daille d\u2019argent. Individuellement, Daigle a fini 10e<\/sup> au 500 m\u00e8tres et a \u00e9t\u00e9 disqualifi\u00e9e en demi-finale du 1000 m\u00e8tres, finissant septi\u00e8me.<\/p>\n

Cadette de six enfants, Daigle a d\u00e9couvert sa passion pour le sport \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de neuf ans. \u00c0 17 ans, elle avait remport\u00e9 l\u2019or en patinage de vitesse \u00e0 trois Jeux d\u2019hiver du Canada (500 m, 1000 m et 1500 m). Championne canadienne \u00e0 10 occasions, elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 cinq fois championne du monde de courte piste (1979, 1983, 1988, 1989, 1990). Elle est ainsi devenue la premi\u00e8re patineuse \u00e0 \u00eatre couronn\u00e9e cinq fois et \u00e0 remporter trois Championnats du monde de suite. Aux Championnats du monde de 1983, elle est devenue la premi\u00e8re patineuse \u00e0 remporter les six titres (500 m\u00e8tres, 1000 m\u00e8tres. 1500 m\u00e8tres, 3000 m\u00e8tres, relais 3000 m\u00e8tres et classement g\u00e9n\u00e9ral), m\u00eame si le titre de champion du monde n\u2019\u00e9tait pas officiellement d\u00e9cern\u00e9 pour le relais en 1983.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s les Jeux d\u2019Albertville 1992, Daigle a amorc\u00e9 des \u00e9tudes en m\u00e9decine, mais a pris une pause pour participer aux Jeux de Lillehammer 1994. Quand Daigle a finalement accroch\u00e9 ses patins en 1994, elle est devenue entra\u00eeneure du champion olympique de courte piste Marc Gagnon<\/a> pendant huit ans. Elle est retourn\u00e9e aux \u00e9tudes pour obtenir son dipl\u00f4me en m\u00e9decine \u00e0 l\u2019Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al en 1988 et est devenue urgentologue.<\/p>\n

La brillante carri\u00e8re de Daigle lui a permis d\u2019amasser de nombreux honneurs et distinctions. En 1979 et 1983, elle a remport\u00e9 le troph\u00e9e Elaine Tanner, qui r\u00e9compense la meilleure athl\u00e8te junior au Canada. Elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9e athl\u00e8te f\u00e9minine de l\u2019ann\u00e9e de Patinage de vitesse Canada \u00e0 trois occasions (1988, 1989 et 1991). En 1990, elle a mis la main sur le troph\u00e9e Velma Springtead, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 annuellement \u00e0 la meilleure athl\u00e8te f\u00e9minine canadienne et \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9e au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e olympique du Canada en 1991. En 2006, une statue \u00e0 l\u2019effigie de Daigle en train de patiner a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9rig\u00e9e dans sa ville natale de Sherbrooke, qui l\u2019a intronis\u00e9e \u00e0 son Temple de la renomm\u00e9e en 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
