Agree that it is better if the nationality of the winner is shown in the template. I checked a few similar templates for other sports. It seems that some of these do not put nationality into the template, while some do. The style I have seen is like (SUI), (RUS), (CAN) etc. behind the winner's name. I did not see flags used. There are guidelines for the use of flags (
MOS:FLAGS), which specify that when a flag icon is used for the first time in a list or table, it needs to appear adjacent to its respective country name. Maybe there are also more specific guidelines or agreements for navigation templates which I am not aware of. Anyway, size of the template should also be considered, as nation code (plus eventual flag) will make it larger. If size is a problem we can split this template into three smaller templates.
