Gold Medal Millionaires |
|
|---|---|
Peggy Fleming is perhaps one of the most iconic Olympic athletes in the world of figure skating. Fleming's gold medal performance at the 1968 Olympics in Grenoble, France, was part of the first games to be broadcast in color on ABC. That year, Fleming was also the only American to bring home a gold medal from Grenoble. Since retiring from figure skating, Fleming has traveled the world as an analyst for ABC Sports, covering several national, world, and Olympic figure skating competitions. But beyond her continued connection to the sport, Fleming has ventured into business and now owns and operates a vineyard with her husband Greg Jenkins in Los Gatos, Calif. The grapes for Fleming Jenkins Vineyards & Winery were planted in 1999, and the couple released their first wine in 2003. Today, their label consists of five wines, including a Rose created to raise funds for breast cancer research, which Fleming successfully battled herself. |
