Carol Tshabalala has celebrated an inspiring landmark in her illustrious career.

"The First Lady of Sports" celebrated 22 years of gracing the airwaves on radio and television.

According to the Daily Sun, Tshabalala said:

"A lot of challenges I faced in the sports industry came when I was starting out. It was difficult to change as women in sports broadcasting were still largely a myth. So, having to prove myself constantly and show that I belong was a daily part of my work.

"I've learned to embrace my uniqueness and saw this as a strength rather than a setback. It has been 22 years in the sports field and besides being a sports broadcaster, I'm also a mentor and do a lot of work with corporates, giving back to the community through my foundation."

Tshabalala is an anchor on SuperSport, usually during local football broadcasts. She is also seen on the channel's programme 'Carol's Oddysey', which profiles legendary African sporting icons.

She first came to prominence working on SABC radio and television in the early 2000s, anchoring various broadcasts on the screen at that time.
