Meet our cover star Lachlan: Paralympian, gold medallist, world-record holder, Order of Australia recipient and Big Issue vendor. As we gear up in green and gold to cheer on the athletes in Tokyo, in this edition we celebrate our very own sporting superstars like Lachlan – Big Issue champions who’ve represented their country at the Paralympics and Special Olympics.
Also in this edition:
- When too much sport is barely enough, who better to turn to for Olympics highlights than HG Nelson? Read ’em and weep (with laughter!).
- From naked wrestlers to the Melbourne boy who inspired the Closing Ceremony, we revisit the extraordinary history of the Olympic Games.
- William Shatner, at 90, is riding horses and swimming with sharks. The Star Trek star shares his plans to live long and prosper – and save the planet.
- Jason Sudeikis proves to be a good sport – the SNL alumnus tells us why his goofy, feel-good comedy Ted Lasso is a "vibe…not a show".
