Winners Never Quit

A tennis racket. Some boxing gloves. A synchronized swimming costume.

What stories do the pieces we use to live each of our experiences tell? Is the material world of a high-level athlete the same as that of someone who plays sports just to feel better? What impact do objects have on the human spirit — do they deepen one’s emotions, one’s memories, one’s feelings?

Translated from the original in the "Winners Never Quit" issue, published July 2024. Full stories and credits in the print version.
