Ingrid Paul Biography

Ingrid Paul is one of the most popular and richest Speed Skater who was born on December 14, 1964 in Gouda, Kingdom of the Netherlands. Dirkina Wilhelmina “Ingrid” Paul (born 14 December 1964) is a retired speed skater and speed skating coach from the Netherlands. She competed at the 1988 Winter Olympics in the 3000 m and 5000 m and finished in 14th place in the latter event.

In 2009, a bribery scandal evolved suggesting that someone from the Dutch Olympic team tried to buy a starting place for Gretha Smit in the 5000 m race at the 2006 Winter Olympics. An amount of 50,000 Euro was offered to the Polish skater Katarzyna Wójcicka to drop out of the race, so that Smit, who has not qualified, could compete. Wójcicka refused, and in December 2009 made the case public. A commission was appointed by the Dutch Olympic Committee and Royal Netherlands Speedskating Association to investigate the matter and confirmed the bribery attempt.

In 2000, Paul returned to the Netherlands to work with junior skaters, but soon became a personal trainer of Gretha Smit. They formed a small “team DPA”, which was later joined by other skaters and became Team Telfort. The team consisted of Jan Bos, Stefan Groothuis, Tom Prince, Remco olde Heuvel, Gretha Smit, Jochem Uytdehaage, Bob de Jong and Ralf van der Rice.
