Archives for 2010

Sportswoman of 2010: Chrissie Wellington

Ross · 22 Dec 2010 ·

I almost withheld this particular award.  Let me explain.  My thinking is that in order to win our award as a sports PERSON of the year, that athlete must transcend their sport, they must rewrite history within their own sport.  It’s relatively easy to pick the best woman performer in each sport – track and […]

Year in Review: The great showdowns

Ross · 20 Dec 2010 ·

We continue our look back on 2010 with a recap of some of the great duels of the year.

The unlucky “loser” there was clenbuterol, a drug which rocketed into the news at the end of September when it burst […]
