Yelena Isinbayeva


No.9 - Yelena Isinbayeva

Pole Vault (Russia)

Olympic medals: Gold, 2004 Athens


Adding a pole vaulter to the list sets up for some cheesy sex jokes, but don’t worry, she’s acknowledged her “male couch potato” fan base and understands than she is viewed as a sex symbol.

Jokes aside, Yelena Isinbayeva definitely deserves mention. Yelena Isinbayeva has been tabbed as one of the best female pole vaulters of all time and there isn’t much that she hasn’t accomplished.

She’s held 21 records in her career, including being the only woman to break the five-meter barrier. She is the current Olympic champion, the reigning World Champion and is a two-time IAAF Female Athlete of the Year.
