My Take
At 202 centimetres, Yannick Agnel was built to dominate the water, and at the 2012 London Games he did exactly that, taking three Olympic medals in his very first Games, headlined by gold in the 200-metre freestyle. The Legion of Honour the same year tells you what he meant to France. What interests me most, though, is the harder question that follows early greatness: how does an athlete who peaks young rebuild a life once the racing stops? I hope he has channelled that same competitive fire into whatever came next, because reaching the summit so fast is its own kind of test.
