She will compete against Justine Henin and Maria Sharapova for the former accolade, while in the latter she is up against Stephen Curry (basketball), Adrian Peterson (American Football) and Kyle Busch (Nascar racing)

The winners will be announced during a star-studded ceremony, hosted by Justin Timberlake on Sunday 20 July in Los Angeles.
