sporting wales issue Twenty Cover story - Georgia Davies
In This Issue:
So where did you go on arguably the biggest weekend ever for Welsh sport?
Wales won the Triple Crown at Twickenham for the first time in history, Cardiff City lost on penalties against Liverpool at Wembley, Nathan Cleverly won every single round of his world title defence while Swansea's Premiership campaign went on.
It was an incredible weekend, something for everyone, and plenty to be proud of.
There is plenty in this edition of SportingWales, as ever there are some outstanding Welsh performers in a host of athletic pursuits that deserve our attention.

SportingWales - The National Sport Magazine For Wales
Leigh Halfpenny
When Leigh Halfpenny lines up a kick for Wales, in his mind he is not in a state-of-the-art stadium in front of 70-80,000 people screaming or booing.
Lowri Morgan
Lowri Morgan is a bit like the Duracel battery advert – she goes on and on and on, long after all the rest have stopped. On through 350 miles of Arctic Wastes, on through pools populated by piranhas, on through swamps full of Anacondas, on to complete 62 miles home to Swansea after a 48 mile extreme run round Brecon, on through as many as 350 miles in a week. Her 'sprint finish' is the last 100 miles.
Andrew Selby
When Andrew Selby works in Sheffield with the Great Britain boxing squad he may have a clinically clean, state-of-the-art environment to hone his talent, but an old school canteen in the heart of Cardiff's suburbs is his real boxing home.
Michel Vorm
Tall, beefy and extrovert, the stereotype which could be applied to most top football goalkeepers, but the description does not sit comfortably with Swansea`s Dutch stopper Michel Vorm.
Georgia Davies
It was 60 seconds that 21 year-old Georgia Davies had dared to dream about.
But her dream of swimming at this summer's Olympics has become a firm reality for the law student who has now graduated to the big time.
