The choice of the athlete of the year 2005 was discussed: the tennis player Roger Federer was voted first by the sports journalists, but the decision was overturned by the television vote in favor of the motorcyclist Thomas Lüthi . Federer was later voted World Sportsman of the Year . Many voices criticized the public election because sympathy would have made the difference before the athletic performance.
