## Write the shortlist

- **Table:** athlete, key stats, followers, brand-safe podcast appearances, target-market interest, merchandise depth.
- **Top three:** best combined fit, with the reason.
- **Risks:** thin local interest or appearances on less brand-safe shows.
- **Unknowns:** fees and existing sponsor conflicts are not in these sources.
- **Sources:** cite every figure to the capability and record it came from. Say what could not be found rather than guessing.
