: He lost his olympic title. Shouldn't have got shorn (get it?).
Lets get real here. White is getting older, age is catching up
with him, the injuries are catching up with him. He is competing in a sport for the young he ain't young anymore.
Also all the injuries are probably making him more cautious.
Years ago he probably felt invincable, but that invincability
is now gone. Reality has come home in the form of injuries.
Hair probably had nothing to do with it.
He is facing younger competitors who are good, are hungrier,
and aren't afraid of injuries.
