The BBC Radio Cymru series is trying to find out how some of the Welsh sports stars deal under pressure when Nigel chats with them.
How does the stars manage the immeasurable pressure and expectations they face when they step into the arena? No one understands the sacrifices and difficult decisions needed to reach the top of Nigel.
