You can still vote in Poll #13.

But here comes Poll #14 already.

 

These are olympic champions in certain events.

Imagine that all these champions are on the top of their game at the very same moment in time.

Who would have won gold?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_swimming_(women)#100_metres_butterfly

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_swimming_(men)#10_km_marathon

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_diving#10_metre_platform

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Olympic_medalists_in_water_polo_(women)

 

As I wrote here earlier, I think the best solution for the team sports (like women's water polo), for the purpose of these polls, will be that we won't compare two or more gold medal olympic teams from one NOC with each other.

Instead, we can think which NOC which has previously won at least one gold in certain team sport event should win in our imaginary games.

And that means we could think of e.g. USA women's water polo team for our imaginary games as a team of all the best athletes from all their gold medal teams altogether.

 

Each event has an option "I WILL PASS THIS EVENT" for those who want to take part in the polls but don't want to vote in every event.

Swimming, men's 100m breaststroke...here I'm heavily biased, but I voted for :ITA Domenico Fioravanti because he was the first man in the long history of swimming to double up the 100m and 200m breaststroke and because hadn't he been stopped by the really strict Italian rules on the heart's troubles, he would have surely won a lot more global medals...he was really a pleasure to watch, also from a stylish point of view...his success will be always be underestimated...

 

Swimming, women's 100m Fly...my pick is :GDR Kristin Otto, for the same reason of the previous poll she was involved in...

 

Swimming, men's 10km...here's is a no brainer...the way :GER Florian Wellbrock dominated the Tokyo race and many more global events are there to show why he's by far the best man ever in this game...

 

Diving, men's Platform...even here, the choice is quite obvious...with all respect for Greg Louganis, Dmitri Sautin and all the Chinese champions, :ITA Klaus Dibiasi is and will be still for quite a long time the best diver in the history, especially in this discipline...

 

Women's Waterpolo...well, I don't think the :USA USA would eventually have any rival in this poll...
