A fact from Ernest Fahmy appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 10 December 2019 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

... that although Dr Ernest Fahmy played for
Abertillery RFC in Wales, he opted to play international rugby for Scotland? Source: "He was given the option of playing for Wales but opted to play for Scotland."

Article is new enough and long enough. Reads neutral. Good sources & assuming good faith for two that are offline.
There's a little more overlap than I'd like to see to
this source.
Iainmacintyre, would you review
this report & change the highlighted wording to be more in your own words?
Also, the hook is OK as-is, but it would be interesting to mention something about Fahmy's medical career. Maybe simply adding "Scottish obstetrician and gynaecologist" before "Dr" in the current hook? What are your thoughts? =

I've done some text edits so that the only overlaps now are proper nouns. '...given the option of playing...' is , I think, best retained for precision.
I deliberately didn't style him as 'obstetrician and gynaecologist' as he wasn't at that stage.
