Claressa Shields

Claressa Shields is not the sort of person that you would want to mess with. When she was a teen, she made a name for herself as a boxer. She even won gold medals in the women’s middleweight division during the 2012 and 2016 Olympic Games. By doing this, she made history as the first American boxer to ever win consecutive gold medals. She went pro in 2016 and remains undefeated. She has not only won world titles across weight classes but also works with Up2Us Sports. It is a non-profit organization that trains underprivileged children. The photo was taken when she attended the gala of the group.

Allyson Felix

Allyson Felix, without a doubt, is one of the greatest track athletes of this generation. She joined the Olympics as a member of Team USA from 2004 until 2016. Another history maker, she is thus far the only female Olympian track athlete to win six gold medals on top of the three silver medals that she bagged. While she is best known for her athleticism, she has a tendency to keep her personal affairs all to herself. We respect her decision to keep her privacy, which must be tough since she is so famous. This photo was snapped during the 2018 Laureus World Sports Awards.
