Because of the many other stories and scans that state she's faster? There was one where they even had a conversation about it I believe in one of them. Your one isolated incident doesn't override their entire history.
Only one writer has written her as faster, she isn't faster than him in any other writer's view. I would like to see these "many stories" where she is faster.

Since the OP specifically states [B]combat speed.1. Wonder Woman-95(Seen many amazing reaction feats from WW imo)
2. Black Adam-90-(haven't really seen much impressive speed feats from him, but he was able to tag Jay Garrick)
3. Gladiator-120-(Nanosecond speed reactions. Look at his fight with Hyperion)
4. Silver Surfer-85(Even though the fastest on the list. I have not seen much impressive combat feats from SS sadly. Still the fastest on the list and faster than supes)
5. Thor-50(Slowest on the list when it comes to combat speed. Street levelers gave him hard time with their speed) [/B]
Nanosecond feats you say. Even a weakening Byrne Superman has nanosecond reaction feats.

Fraction of a nanosecond suspended to eternity. Again Byrne Superman.
Nanosecond speed again.

Other thing that strike me- One thing that happens in the Sacrifice fight is Superman rapid-fires heatvision at superspeed while charging. That wouldn't be affected by whether or not he sees her as Doomsday.And like I mentioned, he doesn't even keep up that level of performance for the rest of the fight. He's trying to get past her and she keeps him away. They both hit each other back and forth, he is not portrayed as a faster fighter than her in For Tomorrow.
She blocked a few HV blast, so what? Superman while weakened has actively blocked several kryptonite beams at superspeed.
Also how many times it has to said, he wasn't trying to get past her. He's trying to take her away from the machine.
