If I had to compete in the Olympics...

Our athletes wrestle with a tricky question: if you had to compete in one Olympic event, which one would you choose?

The history of sport is sprinkled with multi-sport athletes, from Bo Jackson and Deion Sanders in the MLB and NFL, to Ellyse Perry and Ian Botham in cricket and football.

But it's very rare for an elite sports star to make their mark in a different discipline at the Olympic Games.

So here's a question for you to wrestle with: if you HAD to compete in the Olympics without any warning, which event would you choose?

Something you think you'd do well? Or, at the very least, something that wouldn't embarrass you?!

JCC put that question to Ben Stokes, Jason Roy and Matty Potts during a candid conversation in association with our partner, Marriott Bonvoy.

They offered up various options, from javelin to archery to athletics, before settling on a foolproof way to keep their dignity intact.
