hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm jane dougall. from hollywood to holyhead. well, near it anyway. wrexham fans have voted to allow a superhero film star to buy their club in wales.

to the wrexham supporters trust, thank you for your faith and trust in us. we are humbled, we are already getting to work. this is really happening. is he the greatest british sportsman of all time? and if so, why isn't it sir lewis hamilton? mps are calling for the seven—time champion to be knighted after hamilton equals schumacher‘s f1 record. and it's going well for world number one novak djokovic, who's aiming for a sixth title at the atp finals. a straight sets opening win has sent him on his way. also coming up in the programme... a perfect fit, the jacket this man has dreamt of wearing for a very long time. we speak to the coach who helped dustin johnson get that record score at the masters.

hello and welcome to sportsday. welcome to the programme. it began as a joke on social media, but it looks as though wrexham football club will be owned by two hollywood film stars. ryan reynolds and rob mcelhenney have been given the green light by the supporters‘ trust to takeover the welsh national league side. they plan notjust to be figureheads but to invest financially, saying the sky's the limit and that they want wrexham to be a globalforce. craig templeton had the story. another bizarre twist in the strangest of years as it was confirmed that hollywood is coming to wrexham. yes, actors ryan

reynolds and rob mcelhenney‘s bid to ta ke reynolds and rob mcelhenney‘s bid to take over the national league club has been nearly accepted by nearly 99% of the wrexham supporters trust. they made the announcement in typical comedic fashion while advertising wrexham sponsor. we just became owners of wrexham association football club. and they are our team sponsor. football club. and they are our team sponsor. you may have never heard of wrexham, the brand, but you will. so, to the wrexham supporters trust, thank you for your faith and trust in us. we are humbled and we are already getting to work. this is really happening. other trailer companies are available. but in all seriousness, it is quite a development for a club that nearly went out of business in 200a. the pair have said they want to turn wrexham into a globalforce pair have said they want to turn wrexham into a global force and could invest as much as £2 million. and it didn't take long for the

wrexham supporters trust to get into the superhero spirit. it is great news, not only for the club but for the whole town. this will change wrexham. in september, ryan reynolds responded to an old tweet about coming to wrexham with saying, you never know. and now he has tweeted wrexham is the name. the club's most famous moment was beating arsenal in the 1992 fa cup. but now they are getting more than just a sprinkling of stardust. craig templeton, bbc news. joining me now is kerry from the wrexham supporters trust. and also the disability liaison officerfor and also the disability liaison officer for the and also the disability liaison officerfor the club. and also the disability liaison officer for the club. kerry, and also the disability liaison officerforthe club. kerry, how does it feel to essentially be working for two superstars from hollywood? absolutely incredible, absolutely mind blowing. what a thing for wrexham as a town, as well

as wrexham fc. the supporters trust devoted this to go through. what was the message they are both bringing? they have very much given to fans i think that they want to work within the community, they want to embrace the community, they want to embrace the community, they want to embrace the community club that we have been for so many years, they really, really wa nt for so many years, they really, really want to embrace that and hopefully we are going to go places. did you actually speak to either of them? i spoke to rob mcelhenney ten days ago. he contacted me personally to ask if i would like to continue my journey at the club. i to ask if i would like to continue myjourney at the club. i was absolutely over the moon and blown away by that call. i spoke to him at the time. we started this week long anti—bullying campaign to support 2020 and he said he couldn't believe that one fantastic way to kick—start his week and hopefully earning the

club. how fantastic. a friend to the stars, kerry. so, then ijust going to be figureheads, though, are they? they are actually putting financial backing to the club. what more do you know about that? they certainly are. they have said 2 million to kick—start us off. obviously, we'll see from there. absolutely fantastic. it is alljust so exciting. to be honest, it hasn't yet sunk in. we have seen a few fans driving around wrexham wearing the dead pool outfit, the outfit that ryan reynolds wore when he starred in the film. do you think we might see a few of those outfits in the stands went as our land —— fans are allowed back? i think so, definitely, yes. we have already had a promise that both of them will be visiting wrexham so we are all excited now to actually see them when fans can get back into the stands. today wrexham, tomorrow hollywood. most definitely. thank

you, kerry. thank you. some are calling him britain's greatest ever sportsman. lewis hamilton secured his 7th formula one championship yesterday, equalling the record set by michael schumacher after winning the turkish grand prix. but hamilton has done a great deal off the track this season too, initiating and co—ordinating formula one's response to the black lives matter campaign. this year, you have seen people come together from all walks of life. he had seen when people are protesting, people come together and fight for something. people using their voices can push for change. this year, i have channelled that fight into my driving and you had seen the best driving and you had seen the best driving i have ever done and it is something to make it more valuable for me. ifeel like i am getting better so it is probably not what

people want to hear. there are going to be obstacles and road bumps ahead, iam to be obstacles and road bumps ahead, i am going to stumble at some stage but that is a part of the growth process, i welcome it. however, i am growth process, i welcome it. however, iam more growth process, i welcome it. however, i am more aware of how to navigate through those, how to ove rco m e navigate through those, how to overcome them quickly and learn from them. and those last few laps, i've got this, i am going to stay out, i look at the sky and seeing the small drops of rain on my visor and thinking, i've got this, and continue to believe in my instinct, which is often the right one. i think it is enjoying the moment because it will pass, so i will try and appreciate it as much as i can. in the new year, i will start looking at what is next, where i can be better, what else i can do in the world. what i do say is i want to stay here, i do feel i have hit my limit yet. —— i don't feel i have hit my limit yet. so, will he keep racing? hamilton is 35 years

old and he still hasn't renewed his contract with his team mercedes. our formula one reporter jennie gow spoke to team boss toto wolff about securing the future of arguably the most talented driver this country has ever seen. if you're happy and you find purpose in your life, you will succeed. his activities around racing, studded with music and fashion, and now do much more serious topics, they have actually helped him to be more rounded in a way, and that is why his performances have become better and better. because there is not just a purpose in achieving greatness in the racing but there is also purpose in changing the world in the way he can. he can structure the life and the way he thinks it is good for him and he knows best, he is not going to go overboard with outside activities that will distract him. on the contrary, he does things that he enjoys and that

he has worked out over the last eight years. his work take its —— work ethic is inspirational. yesterday, we discussed the race all day and what went wrong and that shows that it is not only high life and glamour, it is actually quite the opposite. now you have done the drivers title, surely the contract is the next thing to do. was it done last night? it wasn't. flying back from the seventh driver championship, you can't possibly talk about contracts. that wouldn't be... that wouldn't do justice to the moment, the movement of achievement, a certain degree of contentment. none of us really spoke about it. and then we are going to give it a few days for him to digest. and then we will talk about it. you can listen to a special programme — lewis hamilton: the greatest? from 9pm on 5 live sport tonight. one of the topics being explored

in that programme is, has hamilton been given the recognition he deserves? with many motorsport fans campaigning for him to be given a knighthood. it's something lord peter hain feels strongly about. earlier, i asked him why he thought it wasn't sir lewis yet. i've no idea why this hasn't happened before. seven world champions —— championships, nobody has achieved that except michael schumacher. it is quite possible he will win another one. he has one more woman won races than anyone else. other sports stars like andy murray, mo farah, actually received their knighthood while they were still competed at the top, like lewis hamilton is. he is a unique sports person, he has come from very deprived, humble background, his dad working two or threejobs deprived, humble background, his dad working two or three jobs in order to get him through the trend to ship to get him through the trend to ship to become a formula 1 star. —— the

apprenticeship. he is also the only black briton and black driver worldwide to become champion or even compete at the highest level of formula 1. so, they were all sorts of boxes that lewis hamilton takes, and they should have happened a long time ago in my view, and it is overdue. we have talked extensively about lewis hamilton as my accolade and you alluded in your previous a nswer to and you alluded in your previous answer to his skin colour. do you think there is may be an element of it, that is the reason why he has not been thought of for a knighthood? i cannot believe it is the colour of lewis hamilton's skin that has not given him a knighthood so far. i cannot believe that racism isa so far. i cannot believe that racism is a factor at all. maybe it is because formula 1 is not seen as a mainstream sport as for example football, tennis, or athletics. mainstream sport as for example football, tennis, orathletics. but it is followed by hundreds of minis are people across the world, and lewis hamilton is the biggest superstar, british superstar in global sport, and it is astonishing that he hasn't been given this
