Kirsty Young's castaway is the former England rugby coach Sir Clive Woodward.
He took England to World Cup glory in 2003, becoming the first ever northern hemisphere side to win the trophy. He well understands the pressure and the glory of top-flight sport, which is just as well, as he's now Director of Elite Performance for Team GB's 2012 Olympic effort.
He says, 'It is the coach's job to refuse to compromise. If you do, you will come second'.
Record: Take That, Greatest Day
Book: Dave Pelz, Short Game of Golf
