Mark Spitz: Seven Gold Medals
马克·施皮茨:7枚游泳金牌
Going into the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, Mark Spitz was a cocky 22-year-old swimmer who had failed to win a single individual gold in the 1968 games in Mexico City (although he did get two team golds). Nonetheless, Spitz bragged he would win six gold medals in Germany. He didn't. He won seven--the most anyone has ever won in a single Olympiad--and broke seven world records in the process. Spitz's career total of 11 medals ties him with fellow swimmer Matt Biondi for the most decorated U.S. Olympic athlete.
当1972年德国慕尼黑奥运会举行时,马克·施皮茨只是一位22岁的小将。在经历了1968年墨西哥城奥运会个人赛失利后,雄心勃勃的施皮茨宣称自己起码能在慕尼黑夺得6块金牌——而他最终获得了7块游泳金牌,并且打破了7项世界纪录。在施皮茨的职业生涯中,总共为美国代表队取得了11块金牌,与同伴马特·比昂迪并列第一。 |
