Ipoh: Jamie Dwyer has got all the trophies in his cupboard which a hockey player dreams of while picking up the stick and the legendary Australian now aspires a "fairytale" finish to his illustrious career with a gold medal in 2016 Rio Olympics.
Dwyer, the greatest-ever hockey player from Australia, has one gold and two bronze medals in the Olympics, two World Cup gold medals, three Commonwealth Games gold, six Champions Trophy titles and two Oceania cup gold besides two silver medals each in the World Cup and Champions Trophy to his credit.
But the 36-year-old diminutive striker is eyeing another yellow metal in next year's Rio Olympics, in what he believes would be a "fairytale" end to his 15-year-old career.
"Gold medal in Rio," was his prompt reply when asked what else more he desires to achieve in his career.
"It will be a good finish. I would like to go there and have success. We have a very good team at the moment and I think I can play a role in the team. To be able to play four Olympics would be awesome. Olympics is the pinnacle of our sport," Dwyer told PTI in an interview.
