Expanded definition of the word "champion" to be consistent with its recent internal links elsewhere.
'''Champion''' is one that wins first place or first prize in a competition.
A '''champion''' is one that wins first place or first prize in a competition, or especially one who repeatedly wins first place or first prize in the same competition for many runnings of it.
A champion might ''also'' be one chosen to:
# Defend another in a [[trial by combat]].
# Represent one of two sides in an inconclusive battle situation, in [[single combat]].
# Lead a group in rebellion.

Finally, a champion can be any person who make an extraordinary effort, especially if that effort makes a difference between the success or failure of an endeavor by any group of which he is a part, or even the life or death of another person.
