  In January 1994, a day before the U.S. Figure Skating Championships, Kerrigan's right leg was struck by a baton. The assailant, Shane Stant, was hired by Harding's ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, and her bodyguard, Shawn Eckardt, to break her right knee. Harding and Kerrigan were set to compete against each other.

Tonya Harding, the former figure skater infamous for her involvement in the 1994 attack on rival Nancy Kerrigan, has recently faced a wave of online trolling following a series of public appearances and media engagements.
