Bode Miller at age 36 was putting down the best times in the practice runs on the downhill skiing. For whatever reason, he couldn’t bring that performance to when it really counted. His age had little or nothing to do with it.
At age 27, Shaun White gave appearances of still having it together to be on top as evidenced by his winning, and best overall, score in the preliminary round. Something was just different this year. If his body was still capable of it doing it as proven in the preliminary round, then that leaves his mind. A person grows more than just their hair in becoming a longhair. I feel he severed more than just his hair when he decided to go fully corporate.
