rođen 3. avgusta 1977. godine. Mnogi njegovi vršnjaci su već deceniju u penziji, ali Brejdi se ne predaje, iako je deo sporta za koji naučnici kažu da najviše uništava telo. Kao i Ronaldo, on nije obična figura na sportskom polju, nego sedmostruki osvajač Superboula. Poslednji put je touspeo2020, kada je imao 43 godine. Nakratko se penzionisao prošle godine, ali se posle 40 dana vratio na teren i poručio da će „igrati dok ga noge nose“. Godine gube bitku i sa Luisom Hamiltonom,38-godišnjimsedmostrukim šampionom Formule 1. Britanac je 2020. ostao bez titule koja je poslednje dve godine u rukama Maksa Verštapena. I nije se pokolebao. Voziće i ove godine, a najavio je da će razgovarazi sa čelnicima „Mercedesa“ da ostane bar jošdve-tri godine. Pri tome,Hamiltongodišnje zarađuje 53,7miliona evra i ubedljivo je najplaćeniji vozač Formule 1. Svakako, ne bi bilo lepo da zaboravimo još jednog nekadašnjeg šampiona, Fernanda Alonsa, koji će 29. jula napuniti 42 godine, a ugovor ima i za 2024. Godine nikada ne biste mogli da pogodite LebronuDžejmsu, asu NBA lige i Los Anđeles Lejkersa. Sa 38 godina Kralj ne samo da ne razmišlja o penziji već želi da pređe u drugi klub kako bi igrao zajedno sa sinom Bronijem Džejmsom, koji bi ove godine trebalo da bude draftovan. – U svojoj poslednjoj godini igraću sa sinom. Gde god da bude Broni, biću i ja. Nećemi biti važan novac – kažeDžejms, koji u 38. godini uzima45milionadolarapo sezoni, mada je on i dalje „klinac“ za 42-godišnjeg Judonisa Haslema, koji je celu karijeru, od 2003. do danas, proveo u Majamiju. Nije tajna da se životni vek sportista produžio u poslednjih nekoliko decenija, bez obzira na to što je intenzitet takmičenja neverovatan.Dovoljno jeda se setimo da je legendarni Pele, koji je preminuo 29. decembra, napustio reprezentacijuBrazila kada je ima31godinu, kao trostruki šampionsveta. Arabian club until 2030, when he will be 45. Cristiano isn’t hiding the fact that he’s thinking about playing in the 2026 World Cup, to be held in Canada, the U.S. andMexico. His physical appearance is tenout-of-ten and that’s also how he feels, so there’s no reason to suggest we won’t be watching himperform for a long time to come. When it comes to top athletes, one who undoubtedly deserves to be dubbed a man of steel is Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady, who was born on 3rd August, 1977. Many of his peers have been retired for a decade, but Brady isn’t quitting, despite playing the sport that scientists say takes the greatest toll on the body. Like Ronaldo, he isn’t just an average competitor on the pitch, but is rather a seven-time winner of the Super Bowl. He most recently achieved such success in the year 2020, when he was 43. He retired briefly last year, only to return to the field after 40 days, saying that he will continue to play for as long as he’s able. Age is also losing the battle against Lewis Hamilton, the 38-year-old, seven-time Formula 1 champion. The Brit has lost out on taking the title since 2020, with Max Verstappen crowned champion for the last two years. But that hasn’t caused Hamilton to waver. He will be driving again this year, and he’s announced that he will hold talks with Mercedes bosses to remain in the F1 cockpit for at least another two or three years. Lewis also earns 53.7 million euros annually, making him far and away the highest paid F1 driver. It certainly also wouldn’t be proper for us to overlook another former F1 champion in the form of Fernando Alonso, who turns 42 this 29th July and is also contracted to compete in 2024. You’d never guess how old Los Angeles Lakers’ and NBA ace LeBron James actually is. At the age of 38, the “king” isn’t only not contemplating retirement, but even wants to transfer to another club so he can play alongside his son Bronny James, who should be drafted this year. “My last year will be played with my son. Wherever Bronny is at, that’s where I'll be… It's not about the money at that point,” said James, who earns 45 million dollars a season at the age of 38, though he’s still a “kid” compared to 42-year-old fellowNBA stalwart Udonis Haslem, who has spent his entire playing career – from 2003 until today – at Miami. It’s no secret that the length of athletes’ careers has increased over recent decades, regardless of the incredible intensity of competition. Suffice to recall that the legendary Pelé, who died on 29th December 2022, ended his representative playing career for Brazil’s national team at the age of 31, as a threetime world champion. 108 | Sport » Sports sport / sports Godine nikada ne biste mogli da pogodite Lebronu Džejmsu, asu NBA lige You’d never guess how old NBA ace LeBron James actually is Godine gube bitku i sa Luisom Hamiltonom, 38-godišnjim šampionom Formule 1 Age is also losing the battle against Lewis Hamilton, the 38-yearold Formula 1 champion Mnogi vršnjaci Toma Brejdija su već deceniju u penziji, ali Brejdi se ne predaje Many of Tom Brady’s peers have been retired for a decade, but Brady isn’t quitting
