A famous sir has a hand in this. Hand = cards. Once heard Sir Lawrence Olivier was a good bridge player and played with Omar Sherrif ( not sure of spelling ). Thats how i guessed it. Any way heres a question for you all. First one i've asked so not too hard.

Which summer olympic sport covers the longest distance?

My fault there, it wasn't really your question :)

But nice question anyway... how about the 50k walk?
