Jackie Joyner-Kersee excelled at the heptathlon and long jump — over four Olympics, she medaled six times in the two events. In 1988, Joyner-Kersee won both the heptathlon and long jump, and she won the heptathlon again in 1992. She won silver in the heptathlon in 1984, and bronze in the long jump in both 1992 and 1996.
