About The Author

Chris Bevan is a journalist for the BBC Sport website, writing mainly about football, tennis and cycling. He's competed in all of these sports with what he calls, ahem, mixed success and says his biggest sporting achievement was probably breaking his leg in two places at Highbury, just before it was turned into flats.
