it's not easy for me to relate - Ive never had any real talent for any sport, although I love sport - I have always been able to pick up anything and play to a level, mostly due to a certain level of cunning and accuracy I have... I have played a football (soccer) at county level, but never had the commitment or will to take it further.
I dont mean to be harsh to dlish... but I think there are a whole lot of people out there that had the potential to be contenders, to go all the way in a chosen sport - the difference between those that do and the rest of us that dont is mostly will power I think. Sure there are the Usian Bolts, the Zidane's, the Federer's, the Tiger Wood's of the world... who have all that will power and something else on top, but even at pro level there are a lot of people with no more natural talent than a good club player (whatever sport you pick)- the difference is luck, will, physical strength/fitness - or something random like that most times,
