You dont believe, but I have told already: Robert Scheidt. The guy is one of the best athlets ever and still winning.

Last year, he simply have changed his class from Laser to Star (two opposites classes) and he is already the world champion in the new class.

Olympic Games:

Gold 2004 Atenas Laser
Gold 1996 Atlanta Laser
Silver 2000 Sidney Laser

World Championships:

Bronze N. Zelândia 1993 Laser
Silver França 1994 Laser
Gold Espanha 1995 Laser
Gold África do Sul 1996 Laser
Gold Chile 1997 Laser
Silver Austrália 1999 Laser
Gold México 2000 Laser
Gold Irlanda 2001 Laser
Gold EUA 2002 Laser

So... a sailor... it's a joke?

How many people sail on the word as a sport? Now, how many people play Tennis, Soccer, Football, Basquetball, ect, ect, ect?

Unless the sport is very popular, i consider "elite" or "uncommon" sports out of the question, is a lot easier to dominate a sport only a few people even gets to play.

I would vote Federer as well. The guy is a living legend.

You don't even know what you're talking about... STFU

I know there must be 1000 more soccer players in the world than sailors... if not more.

And "STFU"? What are you, 12?

[spurster]

Actually, I think it's pretty easy:



Didn't lose a race in 10 years.

Track and field doesn't count because EPSN doesn't cover it.

So, sailing itsnt a sport because there are less professsional practicers than soccer?

WTF? Every sport in the world is less practiced than soccer.

If it was so easy to be in the Scheidt level, why in the more people doesnt practice sailing to win gold medals?

Laser is the cheaper class of sailing, BTW. Even in Brazil (a poor country), there are thousands and thousands of lasers practicers.

And very easy on the eyes as well...

Of course, we could argue the collective athlete known as the US Womens Soccer Team that has not lost in over 2 years. Ditto on the easy on the eyes thing...

Marta is God

Dan Carter.

Dan Carter.

Once again the All blacks choked... So much for the "Most Dominant" label.

I have to think it is Tiger Woods. Who else has been at the pinnacle of his sport for what? 10, 12 years running? Tiger was a force before he turned pro and once he did..well, as Nicklaus once said "I am not familiar with the game he plays". And quit frankly, no one else is either. Tiger will still be nbr 1 in the world in his sport after all the tennis players have hung up their rackets for good. By the time he decides to call it quits, he will own every record there is to own in golf.
