I think these are clearly notable people, and thus should either be kept (in cases where sufficient information can be written for a stand-alone article) or should be merged (when there is not sufficient information for a stand-alone article).   says to use coverage in reliable sources to assess notability because that is a straightforward way to tell if something is likely notable.  However, it is not the coverage in sources that ''makes'' the subject notable, but rather the interest from the world at large.   also says to use common sense, making it clear that coverage isn't necessary to assess notability when it would be blatantly obvious that the subject is notable.  I think it is blatantly obvious that the champions of what were the greatest athletic events of their time would be notable people, and thus in depth coverage of these people is thus not necessary to assess their notability.  Because these are notable people, there articles certainly shouldn't be deleted outright.  However, the  section of  also makes it clear that significant coverage is required so that we have enough information to write stand-alone articles on notable subjects, and that notable subjects without significant coverage should instead be covered in a larger article or list.  Thus any of these people without significant coverage should be merged, and any with significant coverage should be kept, but none of them should be deleted
