Unlike the men's section, the women's race is between three individuals - Veronica Campbell-Brown, Shelly-Ann Fraser and Melaine Walker - all gold medal winners at the Beijing Olympics.
Now my reason for the three women selected is that they all created history. Campbell-Brown was the first woman to win back-to-back 200m titles (21.74), [Fraser] became the first Jamaican to win the 100m (10.76) and Walker secured her 400m hurdles victory in a Games' record (52.64).
There can only be one winner and, despite CampbellBrown's advantage over Walker in the IAAF online poll, I am going with Walker.

DON Fraser the publicist was the man who once had lightweight champion Joe Brown land via helicopter in the parking lot of the Olympic Auditorium to promote his fight there against Cisco Andrade in October 1960.
Fraser also was the PR person who had Lauro "The Lion' Salas pose for a picture with a lion at an animal compound in Thousand Oaks as a way of promoting one of his many fights in the 1950s at the Hollywood Legion.

We feel the stars will be aligned, literally and figuratively, next May and June for this series to really take off," USATF CEO Doug Lo^an said "We will be working with the Jamaican federation, our athletes and other stakeholders over the next 12-plus months to put together a top-tier event.
With Bolt's gold medals and world records in the 100 and 200, and wins by Shelly-Ann Fraser and Veronica Campbell-Brown, Jamaica won all four sprints at the Beijing Games. Bolt also helped Jamaica break the world record held by the United States in the 400 relay.
"We look forward to taking on our American friends in head-to-head competition in 2010," Jamaican federation president Howard Aris said. "We are confident that this kind of team competition, featuring the most exciting events in athletics...
