    Where did 14-year-old Nadia Comăneci score the first perfect 10 in Olympic gymnastics history, on July 18, 1976?

    ● Esplanade Sun Life — Montréal, Québec, Canada

    Comăneci was 14 years old at the Montreal Games and went on to record six more perfect 10s during the competition. She won three gold medals and changed how gymnastics was scored — the modern open-ended scoring system was developed in part because perfect scores stopped feeling rare enough.
