At the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Tourischeva was a medal favorite, but found herself overshadowed by the sudden popularity of her telegenic compatriot Olga Korbut. The 1972 Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XX Olympiad, were an International Multi-sport event held in Munich, in what was Munich (München; Minga is the capital city of Bavaria, Germany.

Tourischeva saluted the judges, and calmly walked off the podium without even turning around to look at the remains of the apparatus. She went on to win the all-around and every single event final gold. After many years she said, that at that moment she remembered only one thing - she must complete her routine and "stick it". [2] Her trainer Vladislav Rastorotsky said about her: "Ljudmila would fight to death in any situation". [3]

Tourischeva was also known for her gracious demeanor. At the 1976 Olympics, she walked around the podium to personally congratulate champion Nadia Comaneci and shake her hand before accepting her own medal.
