"I don't think any- body gets worse. So it's re- ally a matter of all the fac- tors around you." Patrick turned 35 last month. She has been rac- ing more than half her life, building her brand along the journey and using a marketing strategy that has made her one of the most recognized female athletes intheworld despiteher lim- ited on-track success. She is ranked 29th through the first seven races of the sea- son. Patrick drives for one of NASCAR's top teams, but the sponsorship that was so easy to come by during earlier days — remember the GoDaddy TV ads? — is now a harder sell. Before the season, Stewart-Haas Racing and primary spon- sor Nature's Bakery became embroiled in a lawsuit over missed payments by the sponsor and what Patrick did or didn't deliver on be- half of the brand. It was an 11th-hour loss of about $15 million and it shed light on how hard it is to sell even themostmarketableofdriv- ers. Now in her fifth full sea- son in NASCAR's top series, Patrick has yet to win a race and she only has six top-10 finishes in 161 starts. NASCAR FROM PAGE 1 to lose. But if I do end up losing, I look at it as a les- son. Then I come back the next day and try to work extremely hard. For me, it's not about just winning. I'm not going to feel like my life is complete or the stars have aligned when I've won a championship." The day Durant bolted to the Bay Area for a loaded ri- val already carrying a title, a wins record and an MVP, the easiest explanation be- came the most popular: All that mattered to him was a championship, no matter the path or optics. He must be desperate for that ring. In reality, it's reverse. What lured Durant away, ironi- cally, was a realization that the NBA's Holy Grail wasn't his. It used to be. Durant came within three games of a title at age 23, in his fifthseason.Hewasthebest player on a Thunder team thatwentup1-0onLeBron's Heat in the Finals. Then he lost the series and cried in his mother's arms as he left the court. "Everybodysaysyouneed that feeling to work hard. But I'm like, I've been work- ing hard my whole life," Du- rantsaid."Iknowwhathard work'sabout.EvenifIlose,I know what it takes. I'm not goingtofeellike(life)isover for me. I'm lucky enough to have another chance and I'm going to work as hard as I can until I get it until it's over and until I'm done playing."
