Déjà vu
Four years later, at the Olympic Games in Squaw Valley, Grishin's performance was remarkably similar. Again he won the gold medal at 500m and again matched his own world record. Then, again two days later, he finished in another tie for first place, this time with Roald Aas.
The 500m continue to bring him glory
Grishin returned to the Olympic Games in 1964, gaining a silver medal at 500m. He made a final Olympic appearance at the 1968 Games, placing fourth in the 500m and missing a medal by only one tenth of a second.
