WHEN YOU ARE DOWN - Book 4: The Personal Battles of Sports Legends

By Cal Morgan

When You Are Down: The Personal Battles of Sports Legends is the fourth book in the acclaimed When You Are Down series-a powerful exploration of what happens when success can't save you from yourself.
From Olympic champions to global icons, these 12 world-famous athletes have achieved greatness on the biggest stages. But behind the fame, they faced battles far more personal-depression, addiction, trauma, shame, loss, and the crushing pressure to be perfect.
Inside, you'll read the raw, intimate stories of legends like: Michael Phelps, who broke world records while quietly breaking inside.Simone Biles, who shocked the world not with a move-but with a decision to protect her mental health.Tiger Woods, who went from icon to tabloid headline before clawing his way back to redemption.Diego Maradona, whose genius was shadowed by addiction, identity crisis, and the unbearable burden of godlike expectations.These stories are not about victory laps. They're about breakdowns, disappearances, and the hard, human work of healing.
This is not just a sports book.
It's a lifeline for anyone who's ever felt lost, crushed, or unsure they can keep going.
Because even champions fall.
And their strength is found-not just in how high they climb, but in how deeply they've had to rise from the dark.
