Why does Apolo Anton Ohno yawn before his races? yahoo

Quote:
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Seconds before the biggest moment of his career, the excitement and adrenaline were finally too much for Apolo Anton Ohno. He couldn't hold it in any longer.

He yawned.


I had heard of this, but not of any sports figure doing it intentionally.

He does it before every race. He says it helps keep him calm/relaxed.
