Fatima Whitbread.

 

[maygo]

Caitlin Jenner

Similarly, I used like Kathy Cook.

Unfortunate to run in an era dominated by dubious East Europeans such as Kratochvilova and the appropriately named Marita Koch.

 

[MagicRat]

Paula Radcliffe

This would be my shout also. Her marathon world record is proving hard to beat

 

[NodsNeph]

Marit Bjørgen

Unfortunate to run in an era dominated by dubious East Europeans such as Kratochvilova and the appropriately named Marita Koch.

Same with Sharon Davies in swimming, always lost out to East Germany, one one there swim team was so doped up with steroids she grew a pair of knackers

Judith Polgar no question.

Competed with and defeated mens world champions and was in the world top ten list for years on end.

End of thread.

Tanya Harding

Hard as nails and she wasn't even a boxer.

I posed this question to mates a while back and one of them is a massive squash nut. Suggested Jahangir Khan, and that seems a fair shout to me.
