  Ulrike Meyfarth
The international athletics career of Ulrike Meyfarth had all the elements of a fairytale, including a spectacular entrance, followed by years in the doldrums, and culminating in an incredible return to ascend to the top rung of the ladder.
Meyfarth first showed indications of her prodigious high-jumping talent when she cleared 1.80m at only 15 years of age, to finish second behind Renate Gartner in the 1971 West German national championships in Stuttgart on 10 July 1971.
Meyfarth however was the only jumper to clear the bar when it was raised to 1.90m, a height 5cm above her personal best prior to the Olympics, to win the gold medal in front of the partisan West German crowd.
