Retired English Soccer Star

Retired English soccer star David Beckham, an international celebrity both on and off the field, was named People magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive," on Tuesday.

Steve Harmison, who retired from cricket in 2013, took 226 wickets as a fast bowler for England's national team and was once ranked as the No. 1 bowler in the world. Switching sports is not common in England, and his coaching stint has prompted mutterings that it was all a publicity stunt. Not true, Harmison said.
