The 50 Hottest Female Athletes Of All Time

May 29th, 2008 by Will

When we made a list of the hottest female athletes earlier this year, we realized there was something missing. And that something was all the hot female athletes that came before the 2000′s. Sure they might not have bared quite so much skin, but there were tons of foxes playing sports back in the old days when the Olympics were still the highlight of an entire year.

Sure we still have plenty of modern day athletes on our list (you can’t beat the present for hot female athletes ultimately, just look at the LPGA today vs. 20 years ago), but we tried hard to remember all the gems from decades past.

We stopped at 50, but could have easily gone to 100, and we were faced with tons of tough choices. Ultimately physical attractiveness was the number one requirement for inclusion, but we also tried to look at career success and historical import a little bit as well. We at PopCrunch hope you enjoy the list.

This is the worst list I have seen. Even the #1 is a 7 or 8 at best.

Hello? I am absolutely shocked by the fact that tennis player Ana Ivanovic is not in the list. She is by a mile not only the hottest athlete but possibly the hottest woman alive! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ana_Ivanovi%C4%87

Kiira Korpi… She has a wonderful personality too.

She was on the 100 hottest women list, but did not make 50 hottest athletes list?

I have to question your judgement here.

Danica Patrick has an ok body but a serious butter face. Not a top 10, expecially when you have that hawaiian triathete near the bottom or that MMA girl.

and gulbis is not number 1. I’m not sure what criteria were used, but it seems that magically, current popular females are at the top while better looking women that aren’t quite as notable are towards the bottom. I’d also have to wonder who was left off.

I would suspect you have a desire to pump notable names, but if you’re talking just looking good and being an athlete, the sport or the notariety should not be taken into account…..just how fine the woman looks.

Please adjust your list. If you want, send me some stipend money and I’ll amend it for you.

Charlie, go back to looking at the boys. You seem more like a Randy Johnson mancrush type…

Misty May is missing off this list. For that matter, I would rather have had it broken down into the various women’s sports. Top 5 volleyball players, gymnasts, tennis players, etc…

Wow, this is terrible!!!
Swin Cash??? Flo-Jo? Kristi Yamaguchi??? YUCK! What next, Billy Jean King?

There were some nasty looking girls on that list. I can find about 30 hotter girls on UCLA/USC’s current sports teams alone.

Jennie Finch in Top 10 of all time, but #49 in your list of current athletes? Doesn’t make sense…

I’m with the guys that think this list is reversed. Some of the hottest women aren’t even in the top 10. And where’s Jamie Sale? She was good enough for FHM, but not for you? Hello……

Peggy Fleming had an elegance about her that I feel no female athlete has come close to since. Lots of sexy, teasing types, but for natural beauty, Peggy is the queen.

Now you’re talking. A woman should look like a woman these female athletes that look like they use male hormone should be eliminated from the competion. Look at Micheline Ostermeyer in 1948 she won two gold and a bronze olympic medal and her best talent is a concert pianist since age 11. But she looks every bit a beautiful and sexy woman, and remember Laura Baugh and Nancy Lopez in golf. How about that woman that use to beat the guys on superstar competion in the 70′s, including ’68 decathlon champ.
