You made sure that the 37-year-old’s lead was comfortably maintained. In fact, a check by SAYS showed that up until 19 January, she was the only one with six figures in her number of votes.
Nicol, who is the only Asian athlete in the list, is on the verge of winning the World Games’ GOAT poll after having received 260,203 votes as of this writing, with the poll scheduled to end tomorrow
Nicol currently has over 140,000-vote advantage.
Her closest competitor is powerlifting athlete Larysa Soloviova from Ukraine with 120,185 votes, followed by Irish James Kehoe representing tug of war with 113,362 votes.
You can still vote as the voting ends at 9pm local time 1 February
“You can give your votes to the candidates … once per 24 hours. Votes must be given each time to two candidates: 2 votes to your first-choice candidate and 1 vote to your second-choice candidate. If you try to give votes to one candidate only, the votes will not be registered,” according to the voting rules.

Being in lockdown helps me go down through memory lane. This was my last British Open title win. I won 5 in total and it was truly special because deep down inside I knew that this would be my last. Hope everyone is doing well during this MCO in Malaysia. Please take care pic.twitter.com/N5Dh8RZ1ja
