Ten greatest moments in world sports .

Same rules except you can't include American sports where they only compete against each other and call it a world championship....

A quaking Ali lighting the torch at Atlanta 1996 Olympics.

Alternatively the worst moments in sports, everything else to do with Atlanta including the McDonald's chip packet cauldron.

YES. It was a moving powerful moment.

Bolt's gold medal running sideways across the finish line.

Like him or loathe him Tiger's 2019 Masters win would be a contender.

The era of efforts to break the 4 minute mile.

Landy stopping to check the fallen Ron Clarke.

The Mexico City 68 Games 200m presentation produced an iconic image.

Ali standing over Liston.

On Tiger, his greatest win to me will always be the Pebble Beach US Open in 2000 (the year Tiger was untouchable).

The course was so tough that 2nd place was taken by Miguel Ángel Jiménez on +3. Yet Tiger mauled the course to the tune of a final score of -12. It was a performance for the ages.

The Thriller in Manilla Ali-Frazier fight was also up there.

Norman and his two mates certainly iconic, but none of whom were risking summary "judicial punishment".  Thus Andy Flower and Henry Olonga, 2003 Gilly.  How soon we forget.  ...oh that's right shit for brains(sorry TGM) took some pills out for a joyride which hijacked the issue.

Just going by the last decade...
Last year's world cup final
Woods at Augusta last year
Miracle at Medinah
Froome's giro win
