Behind the suicide of a rowing champ
Julie Verghese vividly remembers that overcast October day in 2002 at the
Nakdong River in Busan, South Korea. They were paddling out to the start of the
women�s pair-oars-with-coxswain final of the 14th Asian Games. ��To say that I
was nervous is a gross understatement,�� she says, what with the crowds, the
choppers overhead, the launches packed with camera crews � all this after
months of training on deserted lakes.
