Which athletes will shine in 2008?
Phillips Idowu and Nathan Douglas
Jumping Kings
Triple jumper Phillips Idowu (left) has got all the potential in the world but questions remain about producing when it really matters.

After setting a record at the European Indoors last year he - admittedly with injury - bombed at the World Championships. You're never quite sure what will happen.

Nathan Douglas (right) is a lot more solid and, if he stays fit, is good enough to push for a medal.

In the long jump, Chris Tomlinson had a decent season last year but his World Championships was disappointing. He did well in Athens and could come good again.
