  • Wayne Mardle: 2008 World Darts Championship
    2020/09/01
    Wayne Mardle had done the tough bit: he'd beaten Phil Taylor. In a dramatic quarter-final, Hawaii 501 had overturned a 3-0 deficit to claim the biggest win of his career, and knock The Power out of the World Darts Championship before the final: something no one had managed in the 15-year history of the event. All that stood between Mardle and a shot at the sport's biggest prize on January 1st was Kirk Shepherd, a 21-year-old qualifier who'd enjoyed a remarkable run so far. The mismatch was enormous; there could only be one winner here. However, as Mardle realised over the course of an agonising evening on the oche, the game really isn’t played on paper, and you underestimate your opponent at your peril. Alongside Rod Studd, he recounts his 'One That Got Away'.

  • Mark James and Andrew Coltart: 1999 Ryder Cup
    2020/08/18
    In 1999, Mark ‘Jesse’ James captained Team Europe in the 33rd Ryder Cup, selecting rookie Andrew Coltart as part of his Brookline-bound side. The first singles match teed off on the final day with the men in blue holding a commanding 10-6 lead, but the USA's Ben Crenshaw had assembled a formidable line-up, cheered on by a raucous home crowd. As Justin Leonard holed a miracle putt on the 17th, and supporters and teammates flooded the green, the fightback was all but complete: Europe would relinquish the Ryder Cup. Alongside Josh Antmann, James and Coltart dissect the events of that weekend.

  • Paula Radcliffe: 2004 Olympic Marathon
    2020/08/04
    At the Athens Olympics, Paula Radcliffe isn't only the fastest competitor on the start-line of the women's marathon: she is the best women's marathon runner there has ever been, and by a matter of minutes. She finished 5th on the track in Atlanta, and 4th in Sydney, but has since moved to the roads with enormous success, and the gold medal has been all but hung around the world record holder's neck. But then, out on the hot and humid streets of Athens, the unthinkable happens: with just four miles remaining, Radcliffe stops, and collapses onto the pavement. Her Olympic dream, again, is in tatters. In the company of Claire Thomas, she reflects on where it all went wrong, and how - across a truly glittering career - an Olympic title remained so very elusive...
