Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes was honoured as best men's sports athlete at the ESPYS, while American alpine skier Mikaela Shiffrin received the women's sports honour on Wednesday night.

Mahomes has won two Super Bowls in his five seasons and was named MVP of the game each time, including this past February. He turns 28 in September. "It was an incredible season.

There was many ups, many downs," Mahomes said. "I appreciate my teammates, my coaches, the guys that are here. I go back to camp next Tuesday, so this is a great award.

But we're going to do this thing again, we're going to keep this thing rolling." Shiffrin won her 87th World Cup race in March, breaking the mark set by Ingemar Stenmark for the most such wins by any skier.
