Some of the biggest names in sports are expected to take home a silver statue at this year’s ESPY Awards.
The ESPYs — which stand for Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly — takes place on Wednesday, July 12, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California, and will recognize some of the world’s most prominent athletes’ outstanding work over the past year.
While the event is typically hosted by a well-known athlete — NBA star Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors took up the mantle in 2022 — Wednesday’s ceremony will be without an emcee due to the ongoing WGA writer’s strike in Hollywood.
This year’s ceremony will also pay tribute to three courageous athletes, teams and staff members for their strength over the past year. Chicago White Sox pitcher Liam Hendriks will receive the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance for his hard-fought battle against non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, while the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team will be awarded the Arthur Ashe Award for Courage for their fight for equal pay. The Buffalo Bills training staff, for their part, will be honored with the Pat Tillman Award for Service in recognition of their fast and life-saving service to NFL player Damar Hamlin when he went into cardiac arrest on the field in April.
