Laureus World Sports Awards: Former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has described holding the Laureus Trophy he received in 2020 as a truly special feeling, underlining how years of hard work, ups and downs, and perseverance made the recognition even more meaningful.

"When you have this beautiful trophy in your hand, you really feel special. For all those years where you’ve been through ups and downs in life, and then you get appreciated in this special manner, in front of the top athletes of the world. It really makes it a memorable event. I cherish this. I mean, it’s really special,” he said in a video released by Laureus on X.

Those words gain even more significance as the 2026 Laureus World Sports Awards is set to take place at Madrid’s Palacio de Cibeles on Monday. Widely regarded as the “Oscars of sport,” the Laureus Awards recognise not just excellence in performance, but defining moments that inspire millions across the globe.
