Mikkel Hansen HANDBALL Handball icon Mikkel Hansen had as impressive a farewell as any player could hope for with a gold medal at the 2024 Olympics, the second of his career (which also includes a silver). Having scored 1,387 goals in 276 matches for Denmark, he earned recognition for his exceptional skills, leadership and achievements in both national and international competitions, winning the World Championship title in three consecutive editions (2019, 2021 and 2023) as well as multiple medals at the European Championship. Named IHF World Player of the Year a record-tying three times, he is undoubtedly one of the sport's all-time greats, and his legacy will continue to inspire generations of handball players.

Mijaín López WRESTLING Widely considered one of the greatest Greco-Roman wrestlers of all time, Mijaín López is regarded for his incredible consistency, discipline, accurate technique and dominance in international competitions. Beginning with the 2004 Olympics, López competed in the following five editions of the Summer Games, winning consecutive gold medals in all of them – thus becoming the first athlete in any sport to win five gold medals in the same individual event. In addition, López is also a five-time World champion and Pan American Games gold medalist. As he left his wrestling shoes in the center of the mat after his final Olympic victory, the world witnessed the retirement of a sports legend.

Andy Murray TENNIS As one of the notable figures in tennis over the past few decades, Andy Murray’s legacy includes not only his achievements, but also his determination, sportsmanship and work ethic. Turning professional in 2005, Murray went on to win numerous titles, including three Grand Slam titles, 46 ATP Tour singles titles (including 14 Masters 1000) and back-to-back men's singles gold medals at the Summer Olympics (2012, 2016), the only male player ever to do so. Through his advocacy for equality in sports as well as his efforts to support charitable causes, his influence certainly transcended the tennis court, and he will be remembered for the mental resilience he demonstrated throughout his career.
