Hambuchen named Sportsman of the Year in Germany

This is a big deal.

I recall when Kyle Shewfelt was named Canada’s Athlete of the Year ahead of professional athletes in ice hockey and basketball. That’s huge.

In Germany too, this is a really big deal. Congratulations!

2007 World high bar champion Fabian Hambuchen was named Sportsman of the Year in Germany this week, completing what for him has been a year of accomplishment. …

It would be great for our sport if Hambuchen won the Olympic All-around.

… OK, that’s asking a lot in Beijing. But he plans on at least 2 more Olympics after this one.

Good luck.
