I voted for Serena, because she has been a dominant force in Tennis for such a long time now.
However there are many compelling arguments being made for everyone else like Phelps, Bolt, and Biles. Either one of them could get the top honestly. Particularly Phelps who has won the most medals by any athlete in Olympic history. That's iconic.
That one Olympic where Bolt shattered every world record for running that he participated in? That's iconic.
Biles being the single most winningest gymnast in history, and even having moves named after her that only she can pull off? That's iconic. She has dual citizenship with Belize too, but I didn't want my bias to show. Biles' accomplishments are not claimed by Belize (she clearly competes for America), but we do have a soft spot for someone with Belizean connections. :)
