The 8 of Clubs coordinate
Jason Lezak was born November 12 (1975-11-12). Month 11 and day 12 give solar value 21, which is the 8 of Clubs (The Ambitious Builder). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1975 is unused. The 8 of Clubs does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Jason Lezak for United States. Quoted system copy for the 8 of Clubs, not a biography of Jason Lezak: You run a knowledge system other people can follow, and you stand behind the call. Your mind calculates power, influence, and success. You're ambitious and know how to leverage ideas into position. You think like a chess player.
Jason Lezak in the public record
Lezak specialized in the 50 and 100-meter freestyle races, and represented the United States in four Olympic Games where he won eight Olympic medals. Lezak is known for his performance at the 2008 Summer Olympics as the anchor for the United States during the men's 4×100-meter freestyle relay, where his time of 46.06 seconds was the fastest 100 m freestyle split recorded to that date. Several sports historians and journalists considered the event one of the greatest and most memorable efforts by an American relay team of that era. Lezak has served as the general manager of the Cali Condors, which is part of the International Swimming League. Lezak was born in Irvine, California, the son of Linda (née Mann), a former elementary school science teacher, and David Lezak, a former leather goods salesman. He is Jewish. The name Lezak is pronounced Leh-Zhack and is Polish (short e). Lezak attended El Camino Real Elementary School (now Woodbury Elementary School) and Irvine High School.

Where the record meets the Queen of Diamonds
A card is a calendar coordinate, not a cause. What follows sets one line of the card's own published language beside one sentence of the sourced record, paired by a documented rule. It is a resemblance offered for the reader to weigh — not a claim about Jason Lezak, and not a forecast of a gold medal.
