My greatest olympic prize justification of title.
Answers
This friendship between Owens and Long was the Greatest Olympic prize for Jesse Owens rather than winning the competition.
Hence the title is justified.
The athlete Luz Long did not believe in the Nazi Aryan Superiority even though he was a German .
He helped the author to win the medal and also if he would not have helped Jesse , then the Jesse could not have even qualified for the finals.
Instead of looking at the world situation , he formed a kind of friendship with the author .
Even though he lost he felt happy for his friend and stood by his side congratulating him.
This is a strong bond of friendship and it was not a fake smile even though Hitler glared from a few distance.
The moral of the prose "My Greatest Olympic Prize" is sportsmanship and true friendship .
