[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More $ and resources for training. More personal incentive to win cause the commercials and companies will call them to represent them. That means more wealth. The wealth and fame makes them want to try harder. Other countries? "I do this for my country." or "I love the sport." [/quote] As to the personal incentive, your statements for US athletes maybe true for swimming, woman's gymnastics, woman's beach volleyball, and track and field. Admittedly, those disciplines have to account for around 1/3 of the medals. [/quote]
