Our friend Jo Gunston over at Sports Liberated Magazine has put together her predictions for 10 headline making sportswomen in 2015. Here are our 5 favourites, click here to read full list and check out the rest of the brilliant Sports Liberated blog while you are at it!

Katie Summerhayes
@suummerhayes

Somehow nearly made the podium at the Sochi Winter Olympics in the slopestyle event despite only a recent recovery from horrendous injuries, we predict Summerhayes will make her mark at the upcoming Freestyle World Ski Championships in Austria from Jan 14th-25th.

Penny Coomes

Alongside figure-skating partner Nick Buckland (@n_buckland), the duo wowed at the Sochi Winter Olympics even bringing the partisan Russian crowd to a roar. A confusing technicality meant the duo finished off the podium but they’ve started the season where they left off – flying.

Eniola Aluko
@EniAlu

Chelsea and England footballer, Team GB Olympian, sports lawyer, oh and first female pundit on BBC’s Match of the Day, this year can only get better for the 27-year-old if England can do well at the Women’s World Cup throughout June.

Will this be the year that the ridiculously strong climber becomes Britain’s first ever Bouldering World Cup champion? The 21-year-old has peppered the podium steps the past few years but the top step has so far eluded her.

Dame Sarah Storey
@damesarahstorey

Not sure where this hour cycling world record business has popped up from but come the end of February it’ll be a big deal and Britain’s most decorated paralympian is giving the women’s record a go.
