Breaking the surface by Greg Louganis 290 pgs.
Greg Louganis won 5 Olympic diving medals and probably would have had two more had it not been for the US boycott of the 1980 Olympics. He is one of the greats of the sport, a phenominal athlete with perfect form and record breaking scores. Through it all, however, he suffered from depression, great doubts and had many a hard time. It is sometimes hard to believe someone so accomplished could not enjoy his success. He also had a series of bad relationships that left him poorer and shaken by broken trust. Louganis has made great strides in later years and gotten the psychological help he needed and is in a good relationship. This isn't covered in the book (which was published in 1995) but I looked him up and found out things are going well for him.
