Salt Lake City ? More Russian gold in Olympic figure skating this time with perfection, not controversy.

Alexei Yagudin won his duel with teammate and rival Evgeni Plushenko, and Tim Goebel finished third, the first time since 1992 that an American man won a medal in the event.

Yagudin received all 5.9s on the scoreboard except for four perfect 6.0s for artistry.

Goebel became the first Olympian to hit three of the four-revolution jumps in the games.
