The journey of a thousand miles…: Notes on Hardy et al.'s Great British Medalists Project.

The Great British Medalist Project is an exceptional project that is destined to generate much discussion among researchers in psychology, skill acquisition, and expertise. The authors should be congratulated for a project of incredible growth and scope. This brief commentary highlights a range of interesting findings, some novel and some supportive of previous research, but urges caution until their validity, reliability, and generalizability can be determined. Several directions for further research are also briefly discussed.
