This category covers a very large field! But don't expect names from the world of petanque, bicycle polo or tiddlywinks! We do however have often names from the worlds of Golf, Rugby, Tennis, Athletics, cycling, cricket, rowing, boxing and even darts, although lets be honest, its not really a sport is it!
Often voted the most popular sportsmen include Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson from Boxing, Lewis Hamilton, JIm Clarke, James Hunt, Graham Hill and Ayrton Senna from 4 wheel motor sport and Mike Hailwood, Barry Sheene, Giacomo Agostini and Joey Dunlop from two wheel, and the many other world class champions such as Bjorn Borg, Tiger Woods, Don Bradman, Roger Federer, Pele, Joe DiMaggio, Jesse Owens, and Roger Bannister to name but a few.
