The French are not culturally or physically predisposed to dominate sports such as judo, canoeing, and swimming, in which they have achieved distinction for more than 50 years. A national sports policy can be conducive to good results.
但传统也是可以创造的。法国对于柔道、皮划艇和游泳项目就没有文化或身体优势，但它们在这些项目上的优异表现已经持续了50多年。国家体育政策可以催生好效果。
