"Who won" ???

[edit]

In the sententence about the Problem solving competition in America the sub-sentance "... who won." does not explain anything. Was it his team that won? Or did America win?

The "who" is referring to the team Olsen took part in. It could be made more clear, but I'm not sure how myself. —Panamitsu (talk) 07:49, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That did confuse me initially before I realized it was a reference to his team. I've changed it to "; his team won". Heavy Water (talkcontribs) 22:46, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
