Most widely recognized female athlete

Not to be overlooked by the men, but I've narrowed it down to this group.....again, my apologies if I've overlooked anyone. Again, past or present female athlete, that is still alive today.

Annika
Wie
Mia
Danica Patrick
Serena Williams
and lastly, a dubious contestant Anna Kournikova

My money's on Hamm, due to soccer's global precense, but who knows?

50 cent!!! 😱

Dude, get a clue. Once is enough. Two times and I say you have ADD.

MARY LOU RETTON

Hmm, Sharapova.....didn't think of that.

Mary Lou? Still Pezmerga?

Well maybe not widely recognized, but she is the first woman in US to win Gold in Gymnastics.

True, but I don't believe in today's world she as easily recognized in the US more than some of the girls in this thread. But boy, did a have a HUUUUGE crush on her when I was little boy. 😛

She was too cute....and that smile was perfect! 😍
