I'm satisfied that this freshly-created article is new enough and long enough. The hook is compliant. I don't know if the general expectation is for athletes to be professionals, the hook would be interesting that being the case; otherwise, his very short time in the sport might be even more interesting to the reader.

Although there are no copyright concerns, I feel that the heavy use of primary sources (including Benson's own very attractively-constructed website) can and should be reduced or mitigated. The Daily Record article, which is comprehensive, should be given more weight in providing citations in the biography. -- Ohc ¡digame! 02:19, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Added source. Thanks, Matty.007 16:44, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
