2022 has been quite a year for women’s sport globally.
From the Lionesses taking women’s football to a new level in terms of interest as they swept to glory at Euro 2022, women’s boxing seeing its first “super-fight” when Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano made history by headlining Madison Square Garden, the women’s Rugby World Cup proving an enormous success and the Tour de France Femmes confirming women’s cycling is rapidly closing the gap on their male counterparts, new heights have been scaled.
And closer to home, the success of Scotland’s female athletes has been remarkable, with the past twelve months seeing some of the greatest moments in Scottish sporting history coming one after another in what is turning out to be a golden generation of Scottish sportswomen.
