Tendinitis in his knees hampered David Wottle’s training in the weeks leading up to the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich. His start in the 800m final was rather slow. Things looked kind of hopeless for Wottle for the first 200m. But Wottle did not give up and fought his way back to the leading group of the athletes to finally securing the 800m gold in the last few metres of the track. “I thought people would forget about my race. (...) It’s almost fifty years now after the Olympic Games and they are still talking about it.“, Wottle says. And it’s true - we remember Wottle’s fight for Olympic gold as a message to everyone: Never give up, even when things look hopeless! _____________________________________________________ 🇨🇳 #Beijing2022 replays: 🇯🇵 #Tokyo2020 replays: 🗞️ News from the Olympic world:
