World speed skating sprint championship
The speed skating sprint world championship has been held annually by the International Skating Union (ISU) since 1970. The order of placement is determined by the all-around score, which must be as low as possible. By 1986, this point regulation was lifted, at least when the world championship title was awarded, if an athlete succeeded in winning three of the four individual courses at a World Cup, which was the first time in 1973 for women and 1978 for men was ( Sheila Young and Eric Heiden , both USA ). At the Sprint World Cup in 1985 , this three-out-of-four rule meant that GDR runner Christa Rothenburger was world champion with the seventh best overall score. After a change in the ISU rules, since 1987 only the lowest total number of points decides on the award of the title.
Karin Kania (née Enke), who started for the GDR , is the most successful participant in the sprint world championships with six gold and two silver medals. The most successful nation is Germany (with GDR ) with 20 world championship titles.
