Why is Clement higher than Martinez but lower than Bowman? Bowman did not do that well at the USA Championships despite an amazing season filled with amazing times and victories.
Martinez should either be ahead of Clement, or Bowman and Martinez both behind Clement.
It'd be nice if you had a picture of your number 1 pick instead of an advertisement for Ford.
Great job with the rankings!
I picked the top three in that order too

Clement is ahead of Martinez because she ran faster than her on the year and beat her at USAs. A very easy call really.
We put Bowman ahead of both of them because Bowman ran way faster than both of them - more than 2 seconds faster than Clement and almost four faster than Martinez - and she did accomplish a lot in big races in our mind. NCAA indoors and Penn Relays.
Yes, USAs wasn't great for Bowman as she lost to both Clement and Martinez but she got revenge in Athens when she ran 4:05 to Clement's 4:07.
Also unlike others, we do put stock on NCAA titles whether it's indoors or not and thought her performance at penn relays was remarkable.
WE care about the championship meets or meets that are on tv or have large crowds.
