Sochi Winter Olympics 2014: Shani Davis on verge of making history
His eyes are focused firmly on Wednesday’s 1,000, but he’s looking at it through the eyes of an Olympic veteran.
“I have the experience, so it doesn’t hit me the same way it did a few years ago,” Davis said. “I’m really content. I know what I’m here to do. I’m trying my best to do that. In due time, we’ll see what happens.”
The 1,500 follows on February 15.
Davis refused to play favorites with his 2 signature events, even though he has come up just short of gold in the longer race at two straight Olympics.
“Those are my babies, man. I can’t love one more than the other,” he said, breaking into a big smile. “I’ve got two hands for two medals.”
