This is the story of a fiercely determined swimmer from Bloemfontein who overcame great odds to become an Olympic champion. In this biography, Ryk tells of his travels to the US to pursue his Olympic dream and as a student at the University of Arizona (where he was named the University of Arizona Athlete of the Century); the experience of winning gold in Athens in 2004; the murky world of steroids in sport; his ongoing battle with the sport's administrators; his struggles with his Afrikaner identity; and his rejection of a multi million-dollar offer to swim for another country.
