News stories are starting to emerge that Sang Lan, the gymnast who broke her neck performing a timer on vault at the 1998 Goodwill Games, is suing Time Warner for not providing care for her after the accident. However, different sources are reporting vastly different amounts. Some sources put the figures at US$100 million (http://www.strait2taiwan.tw/content/ex-gymnast-sang-lan-sue-us100-million), while others are reporting the figure to be a whopping US$1.8 billion. Yes, that's right billion (http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/42811725/ns/sports/).
To me, the $100 million figure sounds more likely. This could also have ramifications for competition regulations as she reports that she was distracted by another coach moving a mat.
