Since its inception in 1954, ''Sports Illustrated'' magazine has annually presented the "Sportsman of the Year" award to "the athlete or team whose performance that year most embodies the spirit of sportsmanship and achievement." Both Americans and non-Americans are eligible, though in the past the vast majority of winners have been from the United States. Both men and women have won the award, it being renamed as "Sportswoman" or "Sportswomen," such as 1999 when the U.S. Women's Soccer Team was named Sportswomen of the Year. Tiger Woods is the only individual who has received the award more than once; he received his first award in 1996 as an amateur golfer, and in 2000 as a professional golfer. The trophy is a ceramic replica of an ancient Greek amphora (''circa'' 510 BCE) which depicts nude male Hellenistic athletes engaged in a variety of Athletic activities- running, discus and javelin. It measures 8" in diameter and stands 18.5" high (20.32 x 47 cm). The original amphorae was acquired by ''Sports Illustrated'' magazine in 1954 and was donated to the "Sports" collection of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History in 1979.〔(Legends Donate To Smithsonian ) The Evening Independent, June 19, 1979; retrieved June 29, 2015.〕 Winners of the award are now presented with a copy of the amphora made in silver by Tiffany & Co.〔(much is that trophy in the window? ) Farther Off The Wall; 3 November 2009; retrieved 29 June 2015.〕 ==Winners== The award's trophy, a ceramic urn depicting Great athletes, has been given to the following recipients:
