Wow, the OP seems to be getting unneccearialy hammered for asking an innocent question that I foundd rather interesting as a sports fan! Although I personally don't know of any sports celebrities currently living in the Villages, Nancy Lopez used to, the Conceco brothers have reportably shown up for some softball home run derbys, and the parents/grandparents of a few PGA tour players have been reported to be Villagers. My guess is that there are more, but nothing I can substantiate.
Many of us are ledgends in our own minds, but we are not nationally recognized sports celebrities.
