The greatest Olympian of all time is American swimmer Michael Phelps. He won a total of 28 Olympic medals between 2004–2016 - 23 gold, 3 silver and 2 gold. When it comes to medal tables - and determining the best Olympians of all time - it’s usually a case of simply who has won most gold medals.

Owens stood up to racism and persecution in the most indefatigable fashion. Others leave their respective Games laden with armfuls of medals. But few if any attained sporting perfection quite like the Romanian 14-year-old. The statistics say it all about Phelps, the most decorated Olympian in history with 28 medals, including 13 individual golds. Some create singular seminal moments that ring down decades. Anointed by many as the saviour of a sport mired in drugs scandals and short on stardust, Bolt bestrode the sprint events, repeating his 100m and 200m victories through three Games, none more notable than his 9.69secs success in Beijing in 2008.
