It is impossible to know for sure. You can't just look at the end result of performances either as individual accomplishments. Results are not only a reflection of athletic ability, but also a reflection of technological advances in equipment and related things like track surfaces.

Jim Thorpe, Jessie Owens, Bob Hayes, Usain Bolt, Florence Griffth-Joiner, Cindy Mcgloughlin, Carl Lewis, Ryan Crouser, Hicham El Guerrouj, Eliud Kipchoge
