You have voted cyclist Lucy Garner as your Sportswoman of the Month for April.
Garner's narrow second-place finish in last month's women's Tour de Yorkshire saw her claim 46 per cent of the public vote.
She beat swimmer and fellow Sky Academy Sports Scholar Siobhan-Marie O'Connor (30 per cent) and Emily Scarratt (19 per cent) to win the poll.
She told Tuesday's SportsWomen show on Sky Sports News HQ: "It's great [to be named Sportswoman of the Month] and to get this recognition and have this title.
"Second place in Yorkshire was a great result, not only for me, but for the team as well.
"It was nice for me to be able to mix it up in the final with the world's best riders again and I went into that race feeling 100 per cent.
"It was really nice that we were able to work so well together as a team and pull off that result in the end."
