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.
