[rafalgorka 1,566]

Who do you think should be a sportsman/sportswoman of the year 2020 in your country??? 

 

Man or woman. No two different categories. 

 

I say - Poland - 1. Iga Świątek ?? 2. Robert Lewandowski ?? Both achived a lot this year But Iga at Roland Garros means  more to me.

The only I miss in this top 10 personally is our Rookie of the year : Emma Zapletalová (Athletics) whom I would put even in place 6 instead of Dúbravka

 

but I am satisfied with the top 3 maybe even Top 5

I'd have to think about my personal list, I know there won't be an official one since so many things have been cancelled there isn't really a worthy/fair year to decide from

I know it is not fair. We should be choosing among our olympians now. But what can we do?

 

I hope we will be able to do that next December.

But honestly - I am more and more sceptical about it. I am not sure Tokyo 2021 will happen. Sadly.
