Jamaican U.S. boat came to the Olympic Games in London in 2012 as the undisputed champion of world sprinting holder of both the 100 and 200 metre Olympic titles from Beijing four years earlier. But the question was, could he defend those title? And his training partner, 22 year old Yohan Blake, beat him twice in the Jamaican trials at the Great. This is perfection, the most inspired moments in sports. Yeah. When you say involved announced himself to the athletics world, his performances were jaw dropping, and when he arrived in London, he had his eyes on the unthinkable. Biggest aim is to become a legend and I think and do it so. Both literally and figuratively, sprinting moves quickly. Even the great ones find it difficult to back up across two Olympic Games. Men like Carl Lewis, who has won the 100 and 200 double at the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984, and then the 100 metres at salt four years later, elevated to first place up, Ben Johnson was disqualified for positive drug test. This was the first Olympian to go back to back in the 100. And when he lined up in the 200 final insult, he was within one great run off taking the double double, but the American fell just short, beaten into second in the 200 metres by compatriot Joe Delysia, a team-mate from the centre on contract like. So when you say both exploded onto a World War, I feel with his victories in both the 100 metres and 200 metres at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. He immediately matched the double of Lewis, previously regarded as the best sprinter. The smiling face became one of the most famous. It’s fun not to start like. If there’s a camera in the wall, the fear of messing with it and who is doing the risk, so there’s so much different ways that I interact with the crowd that it makes it easy for me and easier for them to love. In the long run, he ran a nine point five feet, eclipsing the world record. Come and get into the camera to start the 200 metres as opposed to the. Then he broke down on his own world record with an astonishing nineteen point one nine second. The Americans who held the 200 metre record for many years, we have to set a goal for yourself and you have to have the rights of the people around you. Also pushy with you, you may be a little bit distracted is good. And I want to be a legend in the sport. And that’s the key. And that keeps me motivated and driven to one’s greatness when we come back. You seem to Leopold, the quirky lad from Sherwood, was also seen with the challenge would come from the Lords and it arrived in 2011 in the form of Yohan Blake Bouchet, coach Glen Mills of Jamaica. The trial woke me up. Johan gave me a wake up call. Blake was wickedly quick kind of world champion at twenty two when Bolt broke at the world championships and was disqualified. It’s always a double because I’m going to defend my mike after the Olympics. For me, that’s the focus and I’m going out there to do my best. As always, I’m training and I’m very happy where I am. So on to London, where they would rendezvous in the final of the 100 metres, a clash of training, confidence and relay team-mates, but also fierce runners, the champion and the challenger. I mean, there’s no way to be in London for sure. For his part, the 25 year old ball said his aim for the Olympics was to become a legend. And with 80000 people in the stadium, a road home to win the 100 metres in nine point sixty three seconds, the second fastest time ever, Flake was second in nine point seventy five, left in the wake of his countrymen, the 200 hectares that remain. And on the night of the final in London, he was relaxed, playful, almost, and he would deliver his slice of history. One, the final easing down in nineteen point three, two seconds, theatrically dropping to the track and reeling off push ups for the first time, a man had won the 100 200 double at consecutive Olympic Games with eight points as early as Archie Hart in 1984, the great Jesse Owens famously in 1936 and of course Lewis in nineteen ninety four. But to back it up was something else again. The doubters have been silenced and both admonishing finger to his mouth as he crossed the line, told the story. For me, it was very important. It was it was my dream to to set myself off for at least a lot of athletes up on Kitsis once. And for me, this Olympics was very important. So I went out there and I didn’t consider myself, my fans, and everybody was looking for me to do great things. And I’m very happy with myself and I’m very pleased with my performance. I think I did pretty well. I wasn’t doing to say never though. The Champion. And after London 2012, there was no argument from many. At the 1976 Montreal Olympics, a young Romanian gymnast was simply flawless. Nadia Comaneci was 14 years old when she went to Montreal in Canada in 1976 to represent her native Romania in the Olympic Games. Common sense had gravitated to gymnastics aged six, and she was a natural spotted in honesty school by the national coach and brought into the Romanian National Programme. She soon became the youngest ever national champion at just nine years of age. Gymnastics was in a gold rush. Is Olga Colford being one of the superstars of the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich at Montreal? It would be common that she took the limelight, transcending her sport, producing one of the most famous moments in the history of not only gymnastics, but of any sport. The pigtailed comment was just one point five metres tall or four foot 11 and imperial measuring and weighed only 39 kilograms or eighty nine pounds. She was away on what one writer called a Barbie doll with bangs. How are you going to win all five Ibrahima? Dominic had personality and style, and she endeared herself to the big crowds at the gymnastics competition. She moved with incredible grace, took on the most difficult routines and performed them with aplomb, apparently. On Sunday, July 18, Dominic was competing in the team’s competition in gymnastics. The scoring system at the time was people by nature. What appeared to the untrained eye as minuscule errors drew a penalty for the starting point being 10 points. Zero points. A stumble on landing or a separation of the legs while somersaulting or slip of the hand would reduce the overall school. And after all, no one had ever managed it that Common produced a perfect performance on the uneven not comment and on this occasion. They are judged to have performed perfectly. He’s got another day coming if you want to go. I don’t know, sir. Is that really a. She was heard asking her coach. The teenager went to stand beside the electronic scoreboards at the forum in Montreal. And the old black and white photographs record exactly how unthinkable this performance had been because the technology simply couldn’t cope. The school boards had capacity for just three digits when four were needed, and the highest score they could display was nine point nine nine. One of the technical experts asked a judge how common is school for uneven bars should be displayed, whether with a 1.0 or a 100 or so, at the completion of the most famous routine in the sport’s history. The scoreboard showed Nadia Comaneci as recording a one point zero, momentarily confused. Then the penny dropped. I broke into a standing ovation coming and won three gold medals at the Montreal Olympic Games, taking the gold into being the all round and the bars becoming the youngest ever person to win an all round gold and exploding as a worldwide celebrity. She also repeated her perfect tennis, reaching the magical score seven times at the Moscow Olympics in 1980. But she won another two gold medals before retiring from the sport at 20 years of age. And in 1989, she defected to the United States and made a move. Nobody is perfect, and scores became more common in the years after 1976 as the sport pushed the barriers of human accomplishment and a new scoring system was implemented so that Nadia Comaneci, his legacy is intact, a perfect 10 will never happen again forever. And a day she will be known as the athlete who literally achieved perfection. Up next, Phil Mickelson. Phil Mickelson may well be the most entertaining golfer on the planet, much loved for his human touch, his moments of frailty on the golf course, as well as his moments of greatness. Crowds warm to Phil Mickelson like no one else. A genius whose great triumphs have been matched by calamity and melodrama. Notwithstanding his dominance of the Masters at Augusta National, where he won in 2004, 2006 and 2010, he seemed almost clueless on the links of Scotland and England. At least until the open championship of 2013 at Muirfield. Mickelson’s golf came from the American genre with high spinning shots that he learnt growing up in San Diego and at college in Arizona. He finished 70 first as an amateur in 1991 and until Royal Troon in 2004, he had never locked a top 10 finish. He missed the cut again in 2012 and came to Muirfield in 2013 for his 20th tilt at winning the old claret, just not expecting to be a contender, despite his exalted standing in the game as a full time major winner. Then something slightly strange happened, Mickelson played the traditional lead up tournament, the Scottish Open, and one of the links of Castle, Stuart and Inverness, his first ever win in Europe. Perhaps he was getting the gist of it at 43 years of age. Really optimistic about this this week and going forward, because I’m starting to as well as I ever have, and I think that last week was a very positive sign for me because I putted difficult fescue grass and on went in win conditions on Sunday very well. And hopefully that one common thread that’s given me problems here, will I hopefully have solved. At Muirfield, the American left hander began with a fine 69 to put himself on the leaderboard, and he was tied for nine through three rounds, five shots behind England’s Lee Westwood. The tournament leader needing to go low on Sunday. The final round beckoned in tough conditions. Few players would go under par on that last day of Muirfield. And while some of the leaders, including Westwood, faulted Mickelson, playing a few groups ahead of the overnight leaders held firm with two birdies on the front nine at the 10th, he made a bogey handed, one over par. He was four shots from the lead and not in the picture. Yes, but Mickelson had the confidence of a fine finish at the Scottish Open just days earlier and wasn’t fazed by the pressure of going back to back. I know it’s difficult, I mean, it’s difficult to to when the week before Major and then follow it up, winning the major, but then again, the last person to do it, you’re looking out. Nicholson had one last chance left in him for a breakthrough win this week. Thank you. The likeable Mickelsen began that change with a two metre birdie putt at the par three thirteenth gold. Momentum had shifted and the others were going backwards. At the 14th, he made another birdie, and just like that, he had a share of the lead, the par five 17th hole playing up on the day was the decider. Mickelson hit what he called the best two fairway woods of his life, the second of which pierced through the narrow neck in front of the green and onto the puffing surface, choking back the emotion welling inside. He took two putts for the birdie and a stranglehold on. The 18th he signed for 66 with a back nine of 32, and he would win by three shots, he had just 26 putts, making four birdies in the last six homes and embraced his wife, Amy, and their three children beside the 18th green. His long time caddie, Jim Bundes McKay, cried unashamedly, Mickelson called it the greatest round of his life. I don’t care how I got this trophy, I got it. Mickelson’s final round at Muirfield was perhaps perfect in so many ways. And good enough to break through for his first European major and fifth overall. Dominated for a century by. Americans and Australians, tennis has evolved to become a truly global game in the past 20 years. In 2011, it was a woman from the city of Wuhan in central China who delivered for tennis the last piece of that hospital. It is the reason why Li Na, China’s superstar tennis professional, was ranked by Time magazine as one of the 100 most important people in the world in 2013 and pictured on its cover. By 2013, China had 15 million tennis players and league had become the. Lee was popular in China long before that, after the starred Roland Garros in Paris in June 2011, when she became the first Chinese player and the first Asian to win one of the four grand slam singles titles of tennis. Her first win on the WTA to come as early as 2004 and her progress had been steady. A quarter final at Wimbledon in 2006 and a semi-final for the first time at the Australian Open in 2010, then a losing finalist of the Australian in 2011 to Kim Clijsters. Her popularity soared and she returned to China to tutor young players so that I can help as many as possible. You all need help when I’m able to do it. You know, I think everything will be answered no matter good things or bad. So when the kids grow back to the society because they have been helped when they were younger, you found when John and I were with you shortly. Said Lee had a charismatic way about at a competitive drive that people admired as well as a rebellious streak. She wore a tattoo when this was frowned upon in China and broke away from the state sponsored tennis system, choosing her own conditioning and marrying her coach Zhang. Don’t say I’m doing this for my country. I’m doing it for myself. China was opening up and she was allowed to. So to Paris in 2011, when he was seeded sixth and the top women’s player, Serena Williams, was absent through injury. She beat Victoria Azarenka, seeded four in a quarterfinal on centre court in straight sets, then Maria Sharapova seeded seventh, also in straight sets in the semi-final. Her counterpunching style from the back of the court was well suited for the red clay of Roland Garros, although previously she had never won on a clay court. In the final, she confronted Italy’s Francesca Schiavone, the defending champion, and a classical European clay court with a heavy topspin shots. A world wide audience of more than 300 million people watching on television and an estimated 116 million in China alone. Li Na is a performer, and on this day she was unstoppable. She won the first set six four in 39 minutes and the second set went to a tie breaker where she would not concede a point. And when Schiavoni final shot sailed long, Lee slumped flat on her back in the red clay. In an hour and 48 minutes, NA was the champion six, four, seven, six, and the game of tennis had been changed forever right after the break. Michael Phelps dreams big. Michael Phelps often said he’d like to dream big and he was a legend of the sport of swimming even before he reached the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China. The American was a multiple world and Olympic champion in the pool dating back to the 2003 world titles and dominated the 2004 Athens Olympics, winning six golds. But great athletes are not self-satisfied, and Phelps wanted more, much more. It became something of a badge of honour for the man from Baltimore, Maryland. How many events would he intend to do it? How many could he sustain in the crowded swimming pool? Then at the world championships in Australia in 2007, he won seven gold medals and said that he intended trying for eight at the Beijing Olympics. Many people thought he meant to try and fool. Perhaps Australia’s greatest swimmer who Phelps idolised was one doubtful voice, saying that no one would repeat Mark Spitz’s 1972 feat of winning seven gold medals at one Olympic Games. Phelps kept the article with Thorpe’s words for motivation. He would not only match Spitz’s performance, he would try to go one better. Phelps won the five individual events he contested in Beijing, starting with the 400 metre individual medley. He was almost beat in the 100 metre butterfly final by Serbian swimmer Milorad Chamish, surging late to win by one one hundredth of a second for his seventh gold. Only the four by 100 metre medley relay remain with the United States had a powerful team competing. August 17 was the day of the record attempt and Phelps would swing the butterfly leg at the USA. The Americans trailed Australia and Japan early, but Phelps swimming the third of the four legs, took the U.S. to the lead with the fastest butterfly split ever. In the event it was left to team-mate Jason Lezak to hold on and win ahead of Australia, setting another new world record. Phelps loved his team-mates Ian Thorpe said he’d never been so happy to be proven wrong. Mark Spitz’s record stood for 36 years and Phelps had blown it out of the water. And the man he winning, Spitz lauded as the greatest swimmer and Olympian. Maybe even the greatest athletes, he’s the greatest racer who ever walked the planet under the guidance of longtime coach Bob Bowman. What are those three recent history becoming the greatest Olympic gold medal winner of all time? You know, Bob and I always wanted to become the greatest and the best, and, you know, we’ve been able to do that. Phelps had his eight and a media headline set at first, the Great Hall of China.
