Notes
1. The Hunt-Lauda battle was made into the film Rush, while Borg McEnroe was released in September 2017. Howzat: Kerry Packer’s War was first broadcast on Channel 9 in Australia in August 2012. See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2311643/ (accessed 28 November 2017).
2. Hugh Hudson, Chariots of Fire (Enigma Productions, 1981). The quotation is taken from a famous scene in the film where its central character, Harold Abrahams, is questioned by two college masters on his use of a personal coach.
3. For an overview of the advent of professionalism in the two sports, see Rob Steen, Floodlights and Touchlines: A History of Spectator Sport (London: Bloomsbury, 2015), 307–14 and 331–8.
