The Fastest Woman in the World

from The Pool Room with Tony Armstrong · host iHeart Australia

A 16-year-old Wilma Rudolph was the youngest athlete in the United States Olympic team at the 1956 Games in Melbourne. Representing her country on the world stage was a proud moment for the high school student. Even the bronze medal she took home was a huge achievement, considering Wilma was once told as a child that she would never walk again.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
