Mike picks out some of the stories he thinks have defined the year gone by, from the Olympic movement’s challenges to private investment, the integration of technology and the rise and rise of women’s sport.

He also lays out some of the ways in which the editorial project has adapted not just to the Covid crisis but a longer-term evolution in the sports industry and how media companies’ relationships with their audiences have changed as well.
