## Resource

Wayne Rooney reveals his top 5 sports stars of all time - but who truly deserves the title of the greatest ever? And which name at No.1 will surprise you most? And why did he leave out some huge names you’d expect? Wayne shares personal stories about what was it really like meeting Michael Jordan? What happened when he sat down for dinner with Mike Tyson? He also talks about how watching Tiger Woods at Augusta was so special. From the dominance of Serena Williams to the cultural impact of Michael Jordan, the relentless winning of Tom Brady and the raw power of Mike Tyson, Wayne breaks down the athletes who defined their eras. But who changed their sport the most? And why does one unexpected name rise above them all?
