Ben Hogan

Article Abstract:

Golfer Ben Hogan suffered an extremely serious car accident in early 1949, and showed great courage and determination in overcoming injuries which could have proved fatal. He was never completely free from pain for the rest of his life, but went on to win six major championships. His great concentration intimidated many opponents, and he was also greatly admired for his dedication. He had no natural gifts, and worked extremely hard to achieve his status as one of the best golfers ever.

Seconds out, round two of my life...

Article Abstract:

Boxer Spencer Oliver feels that it is a miracle that he recovered from being knocked unconscious and being close to death for 48 hours. He accepts that he perhaps failed to appreciate that he would face strong competition from Ukrainian challenger Sergei Devakov. He does not feel bitter about the accident, pointing out that all boxers are aware of the dangers involved in the sport. However, he finds it hard to accept that he will never fight again.
