unlikely but it can happen in the dec/heptathlons. I know that Daley Thompson used to enter the individuals in minor events as a training exercise. They may actually be prevented from entering the main event in the Olympics etc but often a decathlete/heptathlete is actually good enough in one or other event to win individually.
