Former rugby league star Kevin Sinfield has said his late friend and teammate Rob Burrow would be proud of the knighthood he has received. Sinfield has been widely celebrated for his extraordinary fundraising efforts for motor neurone disease research and care, inspired by Burrow's battle with the condition, and the honour is seen as recognition of that work and their friendship.
Why now: Sinfield's knighthood caps years of high-profile charity work honouring Rob Burrow, a story that moved many people.
