I'm kinda surprised there's not mention of Kaitlin Jenner? I mean how many other women have won as many men's events? ,,,,😊

No mention of Jesse Owens?. Three world records and a fourth equalled in the space of an hour. Four golds in Berlin in 36 and a humiliated Austrian corporal.

But his significance, much like Babe Zaharias (created the concept of the LPGA), Jackie Robinson (no need to explain), Martina Navratilova (out and proud), goes beyond his specific athletic achievements. Those achievements stirred things up because of where/when/who. Most significant Athlete is a whole other discussion from "greatest"

Serena Williams - greatest athlete of all time? Serena deserves tremendous respect for all her accomplishments. The fact that I don't consider her the greatest athlete of all time takes nothing away from that respect.

Probably greatest women's tennis player. Maybe. Gotta remember Steffi Graf and Martina Navratilova in that discussion, too.
Greatest athlete? No way. Bo Jackson is a likely candidate. Jesse Owens is a good possibility. But for my money, I would pick Muhammad Ali. I know, he only boxed but can you imagine him as an NFL safety? Or and NBA forward? His speed and quickness (coupled with his obvious strength) were in a class by himself. He was also very tough mentally. He could have exceeded in pretty much any sport. Decathlon, soccer, you name it. |

The Twitterverse is abuzz with this topic. (And they don't follow the same guidelines as the AGF!)

I have a hard time thinking of any human being I could point at and say, "He's more athletic than Bo Jackson."
A complete freak of nature. |

Compared to me, even McEnroe is a better athlete, It would be quite interesting to see McEnroe play Serena. She just might show him up!

Since I don’t know the answer, I’ll ask – is their a male tennis player who stands above all other male players to the same degree that Serena stands above all other female players?
