So he starts playing for that.
But he's starting to realize I need a mission bigger than myself.
And so he winds up winning the gold medal and he feels great.
The national anthem starts.
I feel my heart swell and it has nothing to do with tennis or me.
And thus it exceeds all my expectations.
This moment is special precisely because it is not mine.
And so now we're going to get to the fall.
You can think about his career this way.
Peak dominance is from like 1990 to 1995, thereabouts.
Sharp decline is going to happen the end of 96 to 97.
Rock bottom is going to be 97.
And then he's got this legendary comeback.
In 98, 99.
And during this fall, this is where he loses motivation.
He has no self-control.
He's got a bunch of injuries.
He starts doing drugs.
He stops training seriously.
He's depressed.
