Default Greatest athlete of all time?

Who do you think is the greatest athlete of all time?
I was thinking about this recently, and of course for me the first one that comes to mind is Wayne Gretzky. But I'm not sure anymore. Gretzky is probably the most proficient hockey player of all time, but I'm not convinced he's the greatest athlete of all time.

Some others that come to mind for me would be Ali, Michael Jordan, Jim Thorpe, Pele... etc. Each have their own reasons for being great athletes of course... but the very best?

What do you think?
Tiger Woods, and everything he has accomplished so far might be a good candidate, if you think golf is a worthy sport.

Then again, there might be a 5 pin bowler out there who has dominated their sport like no other. I haven't researched every sport/game out there.
