Robert Paul a couronn\u00e9 quatre ann\u00e9es de domination avec sa partenaire Barbara Wagner<\/a> en d\u00e9crochant la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or olympique de patinage artistique en couple \u00e0 Squaw Valley 1960<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Paul a eu l\u2019honneur de porter le drapeau canadien \u00e0 la c\u00e9r\u00e9monie d\u2019ouverture de ces Jeux o\u00f9 le duo canadien est arriv\u00e9 grand favori. Wagner et Paul ont fr\u00f4l\u00e9 la catastrophe de peu au d\u00e9but de leur \u00e9preuve lorsque leur musique s\u2019est brusquement arr\u00eat\u00e9e en cours de programme. Cette situation a toutefois tourn\u00e9 \u00e0 leur avantage puisque cela a dissip\u00e9 la pression qui pesait sur eux et leur a donn\u00e9 un peu plus de temps pour trouver leurs rep\u00e8res et leur confiance sur la patinoire. Ils ont ensuite offert une prestation \u00e9poustouflante, mariant une ex\u00e9cution technique exceptionnelle \u00e0 une beaut\u00e9 artistique \u00e0 couper le souffle, et ont \u00e9t\u00e9 class\u00e9s premiers par les sept juges. Ce r\u00e9sultat offrait au Canada sa deuxi\u00e8me m\u00e9daille d\u2019or olympique de l\u2019histoire de ce sport.<\/p>\n

Wagner et Paul ont commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 patiner ensemble en 1952, \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 14 et 15 ans. Apr\u00e8s avoir termin\u00e9 au sixi\u00e8me rang \u00e0 leur premi\u00e8re participation olympique \u00e0 Cortina d\u2019Ampezzo 1956<\/a>, ils avaient le choix de reprendre leurs \u00e9tudes secondaires ou de poursuivre leur parcours sportif. Ils ont opt\u00e9 pour cette deuxi\u00e8me possibilit\u00e9 et ont \u00e9t\u00e9 r\u00e9compens\u00e9s au cours des quatre ann\u00e9es suivantes en remportant tous les titres mondiaux, canadiens et nord-am\u00e9ricains en jeu, de 1957 \u00e0 1960.<\/p>\n

En 1959, Wagner et Paul ont ensemble remport\u00e9 le troph\u00e9e Lou Marsh \u00e0 titre d\u2019Athl\u00e8te de l\u2019ann\u00e9e au Canada. Apr\u00e8s avoir d\u00e9croch\u00e9 leur dernier titre mondial \u00e0 Vancouver, ils ont rejoint les rangs des professionnels et sont partis en tourn\u00e9e avec les Ice Capades<\/em>. Paul est ensuite devenu un chor\u00e9graphe tr\u00e8s en demande, notamment 16 ann\u00e9es d\u2019implication sur les productions sur glace de Walt Disney.<\/p>\n

Le duo a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9 au Panth\u00e9on du sport canadien en 1957, au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e olympique canadien en 1958 et au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e international du patinage artistique en 1980.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
