The BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award<\/a> has enjoyed a long, rich history, with champions who transcend their sport and capture the imagination of the general public and sports fans alike.<\/p>\n

The first award was dished out to athlete Christopher Chataway in 1954, after he received the lion\u2019s share of 14,500 votes cast by postcard.<\/p>\n

The original rules were first published in Radio Times magazine<\/strong>, with one of the conditions for entry being that contenders had to have featured on Sportsview since April that year.<\/p>\n

In modern times, any British sporting star is eligible to win the award, with an expert panel of judges assembled to whittle down the list to six contenders based on their calendar year achievements, magical moments and performances \u2013 but not, as many still believe, based on their actual personality.<\/p>\n

RadioTimes.com<\/a> brings you a full round-up of BBC Sports Personality of the Year winners, including stars who have won the award more than once.<\/p>\n
