UK’s Knight of the rectangular table aims high

AP , LONDON

Ashison, however, thinks there is something else about Knight that will “definitely” make him an Olympian.

“He’s very offensive. He goes for everything,” said Ashison, who has become like family to Knight but is also one of his harshest critics. “Sometimes when he’s on his own he goes over the top. He doesn’t know when to wait for things and when is the right time to pass.”

In 2010, Knight will likely be going to New Delhi, India, for the Commonwealth Games.

“If I get a medal there, that’ll be a good indication,” Knight said of his chances to win a medal at the London Olympics, where he’d love to play for his country in his hometown.

“The city I grew up in,” he said. “My first Olympics in my back yard.”
