On this episode of Our American Stories, before 1987, Greg LeMond was already a champion. After 1987, no one expected him to race again. A near-fatal hunting accident left him with life-threatening injuries and months of painful recovery. But in 1989, he returned to the Tour de France, determined to reclaim his place at the top. What followed was a nail-biting battle to the finish line, and a victory measured in seconds that became one of the greatest comebacks in sports history.
