Sally Pearson

Sally Pearson is one of Australia's greatest Olympians and the fourth fastest 100m hurdler in history. At the 2012 London Olympic Games she became just the 10th female Australian track athlete to win a gold medal, smashing the Olympic record in the process. A year earlier at the world championships in Daegu, South Korea, the Gold Coast hurdler confirmed her greatness by clocking the incredible time of 12.28sec - just .07sec outside the world record - to claim victory. Sally Pearson is also in the media, commentating sporting events and appearing in films, such as "The Edge" (2022), "Commonwealth Games" (1954) and "A Second Chance: Rivals!" (2019). She has been married to Kieran Pearson since April 2010.
