Australia's Greatest Athlete Ever Produced???

I was going to do a top ten individual sports, and include Thorpe.

Stopped because was doing my head in.

Will say this, though, it is a lot harder now to win a global title that say thirty years ago. Many countries now compete.

Since 2000, you would have to include Freeman, Thorpe, Hackett, Hewitt, Rafter, even Adam Scott given he was first to win US masters.
 
he won 3 golds and 1 silver in individual events, rest were relays.

Cathy Freeman only won one, but a running gold medal is much harder to win that swimming.

Correct, her Gold medal is worth 3 in the pool, same with Sally Pearson's and the Hooker fella.
