<br/><br/>  Fresh out of business school, Phil Knight borrowed $50 <br/>       from his father and created a company with a simple <br/>       mission: import high-quality, low-cost athletic shoes from<br/>       Japan. Selling the shoes from the boot of his Plymouth, <br/>       Knight grossed $8000 in his first year. Today, Nike's <br/>       annual sales top $30 billion. In an age of start-ups, Nike<br/>       is the one plus ultra of all start-ups, and the swoosh has<br/>       become a revolutionary, globe-spanning icon, one of the <br/>       most ubiquitous and recognisable symbols in the world <br/>       today. But Knight, the man behind the swoosh, has always <br/>       remained a mystery. Now, for the first time, he tells his <br/>       story.
