I'm subbing Cricket and Golf in the Olympics at A14612032. Just added a few links; almost everything else is fine.

Just a query on the word 'unenthusiasm' at the end of the first section, which doesn't sound right at all. 'Apathy' would be better, but isn't quite what you're aiming at, I suspect. 'Lack of enthusiasm'? What do you think?

You're quite right.

Problem is, 'lack of enthusiasm' sounds quite clunky at the end of a list.

I was after a word that meant something a bit like apathy and I still for the life of me can't remember what it was.
