Ever wonder what it takes to raise a champion-in sports, in work, or in life?
Discover the secrets of triumphant parenting--and raising a child who excels.
Summer Sanders won more medals than any other American swimmer at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. After retiring, she has continued to charm America as a TV commentator and media celebrity.
