“ In the field of sports you are more or less accepted for what you do rather than what you are. ”
I was nervous and confident at the same time nervous about going out there in front of all of those people with so much at stake and confident that I was going to go out there and win.
~ Althea Gibson
No matter what accomplishments you make somebody helped you.
In sports, you simply aren't considered a real champion until you have defended your title successfully. Winning it once can be a fluke; winning it twice proves you are the best.
