Stuttgart – It doesn’t always have to be records that put athletes in the spotlight. The sport also has something extraordinary to offer besides medals and victories. Seven editors present their sport stars of 2020 in our picture gallery, who have shaped this year in a special way. Dirk Preiss likes athletes who also achieve great things outside of their competitions, like wrestler Mark Bühler. Marco Seliger likes to criticize the aloofness of some football stars. He can only praise Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka. Tim Wohlbold sacrifices his sleep for US sport, dreams of the next German MVP in Dallas – and finds the courage of German basketball player Satou Sabally strong. Jürgen Kemmner is convinced that he too has a little gasoline in his blood – and suffered with Romain Grosjean, who survived one of the most spectacular motorsport accidents. Gregor Preiss likes to play tennis doubles himself – and recalls two German successes. Jürgen Frey has experienced almost everything with the Stuttgarters Kickers – now also a deliberate own goal in the spirit of fair play. Carlos Ubina likes to go to the golf course – and is still amazed at the magic of the professional Jon Rahm.
