The vision of the prize changed him.

ATHLETICS

Jesse Owens (1913-80), black American:

Although I wasn't invited to shake hands with Hitler, I wasn't invited to the White House to shake hands with the President either.

BADMINTION

Tip:

So many Chinese play this sport that it's perhaps useful to offer something practical. When you hit (or rather mishit) the shuttle with the frame of the racket, it's called a wood shot because in the olden days the badminton racket was made of wood.

It's a legal shot.

BASEBALL

Woody Allen, comedian:

When we played softball (a junior version of baseball), I'd steal second base, feel guilty and go back.

BASKETBALL

Michael Jordan:

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed... I've failed over and over and over again... And that is why I succeed.

BEACH VOLLEYBALL

Perhaps this is reassuring to the small man/woman who wants to play the two-a-side sandy version of volleyball:

You don't have to be tall or as fast as other sports. You just have to have the skills (Misty May-Treanor, American, 2004 Olympic champion).

BOXING

Muhammad Ali:

I am the greatest. I said that even before I knew I was.
