“What am I going to do with that? I really do not invite people to my house. I’m going to see it myself? I don’t want to enter a trophies like ‘Look how good I am’. I was raised to think that way, and it’s stuck.”

“My wife hung some photos of mine in my gym of me winning the Olympic medal, and she put it so high that I can’t reach it,” Schauffele said. “I have to get a staircase now, and it bothers me. If something, place me in a master’s jacket, as I pounded, do you know what I mean? Something like this is more motivating.”
