Ibtihaj Muhammad
Fencing might not be a sport that has the biggest fanbase, but you should keep your eyes peeled for Ibtihaj Muhammad. She has been an Olympic must-watch ever since she first competed in 2016. This was the time that she made history as the first female Muslim-American athlete to bring home an Olympic medal. With her teammates, she also got a bronze medal. A Barbie doll of her was later produced, which sounds like a cool idea. Here she was at Glamour’s Women of the Year Awards in 2017.
