Bringing his A-game
In an interview with Waitrose Weekd, Dan said: "I’m really excited about it. I’ve covered every sport under the sun during my career – I’ve done Wimbledon, the Six Nations, World Cups, rowing, golf…I’m looking forward to bringing all of that to the Weekend audience."
Dan’s love of sport began in childhood after spending Saturdays watching Crawley Town matches with his dad, and he’s been obsessed with all sports ever since.
