Poss tweaks before mp dyk edit

Hi The Rambling Man, I looked at this a few hours ago (was perusing the set) but got interrupted and now can't keep eyes open let alone double check the maths. Just dropping these notes here for you to decide if any changes necessary.

  • Statuette v statuette
  • lionel messi - has a spare bracket
  • winners by nationality - nominations: (I've counted these 3 times... but still not sure)
spain - 4 / usa - 13 / germany - 6 / russia - 2 / philippines - 0

Hi JennyOz, thanks, all addressed. Sleep well. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:20, 1 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi The Rambling Man, looks like you are missing cycling in winner by sport. Should be 0 win / 3 nominations.

Indeed, fixed, many thanks! The Rambling Man (talk) 06:52, 3 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

How is Garcia a repeat "breakout" sportsman in 2018? Do I not understand this award? SquashEngineer (talk) 21:04, 26 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

I don't know, perhaps you could email Laureus. We didn't vote him in, they did. The Rambling Man (talk) 22:14, 26 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
