Tim Daggett is one of the most popular and richest Olympic Athlete who was born on May 22, 1962 in West Springfield, Massachusetts, United States.
Daggett’s ankles had historically been weak. In 1980, Daggett dislocated one ankle shortly after having the other rebuilt. For months in 1986, he was forced to recover from his two ankles again being rebuilt. Immediately following the recovery during training, his high bar release ended with him landing on his neck. The result was a ruptured spinal disc, and left arm nerves were also damaged. Daggett, against doctor recommendations, ignored the proposed surgery, which would have ended his career, and caught mononucleosis following his recovery from the near-fatal landing. In Rotterdam, the 1987 world championships proved career-shattering for Daggett. On the vault, he snapped his tibia and fibula and severed one of his arteries following the impact from a pike Cuervo. Surgeries adding and removing supportive braces and pins to his leg left Daggett under sedation from morphine in hospitals for three months.
In West Springfield, Massachusetts, at the age of 10, Daggett began his future career in gymnastics by enrolling in the Parks and Recreation program. Advancing quickly, the local high school coach invited Daggett to train with his team. While he was a college student at UCLA, he competed in NCAA Division I gymnastics. He graduated from UCLA in 1986 with a degree in psychology.
