I'm Canadian but I remember her because I was around in 1984 when she competed in the Olympics.

People who are not from the US but are younger than age 35 now probably don't have a clue who she is. My assumption being a 10 year-old in 1984 would be old enough to remember her name now in 2020.

But saying she was an exceptional Olympic athlete, often getting "all 10s" (10 is good so she must be good) would give context.
