William Hill Sportswoman of the Year

The "William Hill" Sportswoman of the Year Award was an award, which was first handed out in 2011, after "William Hill" decided to launch an award with a women-only shortlist to vote for after the "BBC" failed to announce any female nominations for the 2011 BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award, which caused somewhat of a public outcry.
Now award has been given out since 2012.
