Per Wikipedia:
On January 6, 1994, one day before the U.S. Figure Skating Championship first Ladies' Singles competition, Nancy Kerrigan was attacked in a corridor after a practice session at the Detroit Cobo Arena. The aftermath of the attack was recorded on a news camera and broadcast around the world. The assailant was Shane Stant, contracted to break her right knee; he turned himself in to the FBI in Phoenix on January 14.[34] Stant and his uncle, Derrick Smith, were hired for this assault by Harding's ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, and her bodyguard, Shawn Eckardt.[35] After failing to find Kerrigan in Massachusetts, Stant had taken a 20-hour bus trip to Detroit.[36] Nancy Kerrigan was walking behind a curtain when Stant rushed behind her. Using both hands, he swung a 21-inch (53 cm) ASP telescopic baton at her right leg, striking above her knee. The attack was intended to seriously injure Kerrigan so that she could not compete in the Nationals (Kerrigan was the defending 1993 Champion) nor the Winter Olympics. Kerrigan's leg was not broken but severely bruised, forcing her to withdraw from the Championships, and forgo competing to retain the U.S. Ladies' title.[37] On January 8, Harding won the U.S. title; she and Kerrigan were then both selected for the 1994 Olympic team.[36]

Guess which one is which

Kerrigan is the one in long pants, they’re probably hiding bruises

Nah, this was taken before the attack. That’s why the Imgflip template tag includes “foreshadowing”

Ah. Interesting. Her ex and bodyguard are both assholes for that.
