Olympic swimming legend Kirsty Coventry seems as surprised as many at the sportswoman of the year gong she received from the Zimbabwe International Women’s Awards recently.
She said this on her Twitter account in response to surprise expressed by others.
@SirNige @kwirirayi when you find out how I won an award without competing, please let me know…#confusedmyself

Coventry has not competed since the Olympic Games in 2012.
We’re fixing on finding that out. We’ve sent them an email and we will wait for their response.
Meanwhhile, the tweet also sparked a debate with some claiming that there were no recognisable women in sport last year that could have qqualified for the award, to which prominent blogger and social media star Sir Nige said it was simply a case of there not being sufficient research done in deciding recipients of awards.
Let’s see where this goes.
