Top 10 Female Athletes who Competed against Men

Women have been taking on the world of sports for a long time now. Most sports have separate events for men and women. It is hardly seen that a woman competes in a man’s game against male competitors, except in some rare sports like car racing. However, down the history of sports, it has been seen that many women have dared to challenge men. Many of such players have done so in the earlier times because at that time, women were not even considered eligible to participate in sports, and to prove themselves they had to compete with men. Now, since the men’s teams often get more attention than the female teams, and it is kind of a subtle idea that the men’s teams are much stronger than the women’s, some female athletes have proven themselves strong enough to be at par with men. Let’s take a look at the Top 10 Female Athletes who Competed against Men.

10 Highest Partnerships in ICC World Cup

10 Highest Partnerships in ICC World Cup

In cricket, batsmen can make a huge difference to a game. As they score huge runs, they ensure that the opponents have a big number to chase. Batsmen, by maintaining calm and steadiness, are the ones who can lead their teams to a victory by chasing the runs put up by the opponents in the first innings. However, it is not one batsman who can make such a huge contribution to the sport. There is a reason why two batsmen are together on the crease: so that they can assist each other in scoring well. While one player can smash a six or a boundary, a stable partnership between two batsmen can lead to a good run big enough to hassle the opponents. ICC World Cup being the biggest cricket tournament, some of the greatest matches in the tournament have seen some excellent partnerships. Let u take a look at the 10 Highest Partnerships in ICC World Cup.

Former female motorcycle road racer Beryl Swain was there with us from her birth on 22 January 1936 till she died on 15 May 2007. She was the first female rider to compete in one of the world’s most famous closed public road races “TT race” on the perilous Isle of Man TT. She created sensation in the male-dominated racing world but sadly her international license was later revoked due to the perception of the sport being too dangerous for women. Her participation created so much attention that the authority banned female entrants until 1978. In 1962, the 50 cc event was included in the Island’s program which carried World Championship points and Beryl Swain achieved the 22nd place on a 50 cc Itom at the Mountain circuit Race on that same year. She married a motorcycle shop owner Edwin Swain in 1958.
