Underrated Female Sportswomen

Paul and Glenn are back for another fun and action-packed episode. This week we discuss some well known sportswomen who have not earned the recognition they deserved and are often overshadowed by some of their competitors. Some of who we discuss include. - a South African born New Zealand netball star with pinpoint accuracy and was an icon in her sport and is now inspiring a new generation of netballers. - a Swedish golfer who dominated her sport and was good enough to play and compete with the men. - Venus williams - Belinda clark - Christine Sinclair and Caroline Graham-Hansen - Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Alysson Felix - Karrie Webb - Naomi Osaka - Olga Korbut - Rochelle Hawkes and Layne Beachley - Stephanie Taylor - Maggi Alphonso and Maya Moore Paul and Glenn give their Claps and Slaps for the week and Miss Olivia returns to do the Quiz and Who Am I? We have our Where are they Now? segment and Paul ranks his top 5.
