Zdeňka Honsová (3 July 1927 in Jihlava – 16 May 1994) was a Czech gymnast who competed in the 1948 Summer Olympics.[1]
Although she was the highest women's gymnastics individual all-around scorer at these Olympics, unfortunately, she is not officially recognized as being an all-around champion like Larisa Latynina, Nadia Comăneci, or Simone Biles because individual medals were not awarded to women gymnasts at the Olympic games until 1952.
