Pretty much every name I know I can guarantee you hasn't got even close to 4 golds, but gotta try something:
Martina Navratilova
Herman Meier
Chad le Clos
Dong Dong
Martina Navratilova hasn't won anything at the Olympics, can't even find if she even played at the Olympics in her career on her Wikipedia page lol
Herman Meier has only won 2 gold medals, both in 1998.
Chad le Clos and Dong Dong will be available next round, ul GG
