    From a personal point of view, 2 of them who must stand a better than most chance have had a rather large helping hand from the team they are in, that is not taking anything away from Lewis or Chris

    So for me, and having watched him progress it would be Adam

    Adam Peaty has taken his event to another level. Pity he won't get the recognition for it at this event.
    I hope they give Phil Taylor a lifetime achievement award as he's about to hang up his arrows (cue replies about his behaviour in his private life)

    Peaty or Froome for me.

    Mainly because I haven't heard of half of them.

    Popular choices must be AJ or Hamilton

    Should be renamed "sporting achievement"
    Never seen most of that list in an interview, so they could have the personality of a sponge.

    Yeah its been rubbish, Mo Farah won his 9th gold medal at either world or Olympic championships. Chris Froome won the Tour De France. Lewis Hamilton won the F1 world championship for the 4th time. AJ became a unified heavyweight champion, and Peaty was winning gold medals and smahing world records in the swimming world championship.

    Its like these people have achieved nothing.

    A interesting interview from him on the show, he is in a training camp in spain at the mo

    he was asked about his " drugs test " and replied he fully understands where cycling stands and what they need to do to show that the sport is clean, he has always had asthma but never exceded the number of puffs on his inhaler
