The tournament was all that kept me going in those days of uncertainty. There was a reason to keep training, keep getting better, keep improving my skill. I think we all need that sometimes. I wanted to win, for sure, but I'm a good sport. I'd train anyone, help anyone, be a coach if they needed one... even if they were more talented. Competition can be cooperative. For me, it's more fun that way. Then, whomever lifts the trophy, we all get a sense of having won.
