Sports are ubiquitous. Sky TV has at least thirteen sports channels. Throughout the world there is a proliferation of newspapers and magazines totally dedicated to sports. Sports personalities have become cultural icons, worshipped like movie stars and sought after by sponsors and advertisers alike. Where sports were once for fun and amateurs, they are now the stuff of serious investment.

Of course, sports have always mattered. But the point is that in the past sports knew their place. Now they invade areas of life where previously they had no presence: fashion, showbiz, business. They are a worldwide obsession.

We seriously believe that sports are something we can still do, however badly or however well. Tens of thousands set off on the London and New York Marathons. Amateur soccer matches take place all over the world every weekend. Playing a sport is a democratic activity.

Which of the following statements about "sports personalities" is NOT mentioned?
  1. It is about how the characters of great sportsmen and sportswomen are admired.
  2. Sports stars appear in commercials.
  3. Sports fans treat sports players as celebrities.
  4. The personalities of sports stars stop influencing the world when they are not playing sports.
