The 19-year-old from Flint in north Wales won the public vote, with rugby union back-row Dan Lydiate in second place and cyclist Geraint Thomas third.
Jones battled through to win gold at the London 2012 Olympic Games, taking the women's -57kg title.
"It's like a great honour I can't believe I have won," said Jones.
"There were so many great people I was up against and just the fact that the public got to vote, so it's such a great honour that people recognised what I have done."
