Item Detail
Summary
Matt Wearn, one of the world’s best sailors, was among the first athletes selected for the Western Australia Olympic team. Wearn, 24, who started sailing in Fremantle at six-years-old was headed into what he calls “one of the best years of his life,” when the news of the postponement came down. He opens up about how he worked through mental strain, the challenge of being separated from his partner and fellow Olympic sailor Emma Plasschaert, and building a resilient mind-set to focus on going for gold.
