Fair Play Chaps
The writer DJ Taylor uses archive sports coverage to assess whether or not modern sport has lost its way, and if the era of sporting fair play has gone for ever.
The writer DJ Taylor assesses whether or not modern sport has lost its way and if the era of sporting fair play has gone for ever.
Using archive material, the programme revisits some great moments of sportsmanship, such as Jack Nicklaus conceding an 18th-hole putt to Tony Jacklin in the 1969 Ryder Cup, to assess whether or not such attitudes are becoming rarer. In the modern era, awash as it so often is with money and celebrity, Taylor asks if something similar would ever happen now.
