Premont 8th in Bobby Rosenfeld Balloting
Canadian Press has been kind enough to release the results of the top-10 balloting for the Female Athlete of the Year voting (known as the Bobby Rosenfeld Award). Premont was the only cyclist on the ballot (Editor's Note: for the past few years I have been asked to submit names of cyclists to CP at the end of the year for their ballot).
Top 10 vote-getters in balloting conducted by The Canadian Press and Broadcast News for Canada's female athlete of the year in 2005 (with 3-2-1 points structure):
| Athlete | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | Total Points | | Cindy Klassen | 71 | 23 | 5 | 264 | | Christine Sinclair | 14 | 14 | 11 | 81 | | Blythe Hartley | 8 | 14 | 13 | 65 | | Clara Hughes | 6 | 13 | 10 | 54 | | Jennifer Heil | 7 | 10 | 9 | 50 | | Jayne Hefford | 6 | 9 | 10 | 46 | | Sara Renner | 2 | 7 | 6 | 26 | | Marie-Helene Premont | 2 | 8 | 2 | 24 | | Emily Brydon | 2 | 5 | 7 | 23 | | Mary Ann Lapointe | 1 | 6 | 7 | 22 |
