Meet The Most Beautiful and Influential Female Athletes in the World Of Sports and What They Excel In

Becky Lynch, Age 33 – Wrestling

A 3-times SmackDown Women’s Champion, wrestling beauty, Becky Lynch, is one of the most famous and highest-paid female wrestlers in the world. She was born in Limerick, in Ireland, and started wrestling in the local independent circuits, often tag-teaming with her brother.

Eventually, she made it to the U.S., wrestling’s world capital, and to the biggest stage of them all: the WWE. In 2006, a severe head injury threatened her promising career, but she came back stronger than ever a handful of years later. In the ring, Lynch’s known for her aggressive and self-centered style, but outside of it, she looks like a steamy sweetheart with gorgeous red hair.

Whitney Miller, Age 31 – Miss USA 2012 And Jiu-Jitsu

Beauty pageant girls always look so fragile, don’t they? Well, not always. While most former Miss USA don’t know how to throw a punch, the same cannot be said about Whitney Miller. Nowadays, she’s training to become a jiu-jitsu black belt, and she seems to have the necessary upper body strength to pull it off.

Boasting a rare combination of beauty and brawn, she’s the kind of woman you’ll not want to irritate during a first dinner date! But jokes aside, Miller’s unique personality has made her into one of our favorite Miss USA’s ever. And have we mentioned she’s also a bonafide Instagram superstar?

Ellen Hoog, Age 34 – Field Hockey

From the small Dutch town of Bloemendaal to the world, field hockey player Ellen Hoog has already collected 2 Olympic Gold medals and played for the Netherlands national team over 230 times. And in the not-always graceful game of field hockey, she is the bonafide prom queen.

Arguably the best female athlete in the game, Hoog, has made headlines more than once due to her good looks. But even though she knows how to rock a bikini, she is at her best when she’s scoring goals with the stick. Hoog was vital in helping the Netherlands to land 2 World Cups and 3 European championships.

Sydney Leroux, Age 30 – Soccer

With 35 goals in 77 appearances for the U.S.’s national soccer team, Sydney Leroux is yet another highly-talented American soccer player. And, like many of her teammates, she combines her ability with the ball with a capacity to impress outside of the pitch. Leroux does so by looking like that, while also boasting 15 tattoos and one of the coolest looks on our list of gorgeous female athletes.

At the age of 30, Leroux has won about everything there is to win in soccer, including an Olympic Gold medal. Nowadays, she plays as a forward for the Orlando Pride.

Lucy Robson, Age 25 – Golf

Although she is but a junior golfer, Lucy Robson has attracted a lot of attention, not just for her playing style but also for her head-turning looks. She was born in London in 1995, yet already, she has lived in Florida for over a decade.

Robson now has almost one million followers on her Instagram account. According to The Sun UK, she recently got a golfing simulator to help her stay in good shape during the lockdown. Given how much attention she’s recently gotten, it’s safe to say that we’ll be seeing a lot more of her from here on.

Paige Spiranac, Age 27 – Golf

Her career as a professional athlete may have been short, but it’s never too late for Paige Spiranac to pick back right where she started! She was born in 1993, meaning that she’s only 27 years old. She made her professional golfing debut in 2015 and even took part in the Cactus Tour of 2016.

She has since focused on being an Instagram influencer instead of playing sports, and who could blame her? Already, she has over 2.9 million followers on her account! She even started a podcast in 2020 called Playing A Round with Paige Renee. She’s also been featured on Golf Digest’s edition of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

Antonija Sandrić, Age 32 – Basketball

When you’re over 5 feet tall, and you look like Antonija Sandrić, a modeling career seems like a way too obvious choice. That’s maybe why the Croatian beauty decided to try a different line of work, becoming a professional basketball player.

Representing Croatia’s national team, she played for multiple European clubs, including Poland’s CCC Polkowice and France’s Toulouse Métropole Basket. But wherever she goes, two things remain the same: she will score points on the pitch, and she will melt some hearts along the way. In 2012, NBA superstar, Nate Robinson, called her “the most beautiful woman basketball player ever to lace up some sneakers.”

Lindsey Vonn, Age 35 – Alpine Ski Racing

While significant in Scandinavia, alpine ski racing is probably not your favorite sport. But if there was ever a reason to watch it, it probably had something to do with Lindsey Vonn. Whether you like to ski or not, we’re pretty sure you’re loving the beautiful lady in the picture.

But besides being a blonde bombshell, Lindsey Vonn is also a crazily talented former skier. A 4-times World champion with an Olympic Gold medal, Vonn has the second-highest super ranking of all skiers, men included. Vonn started when she was just 16 and retired in 2019. Meanwhile, she won about every accolade that was up for grabs.

Caroline Wozniacki, Age 30 – Tennis

In the history of tennis, only four ladies have made more money than the Danish superstar Caroline Wozniacki. With a whopping $35.2 million in collected prize money, she is remembered as the 5th best female tennis player of all-time, and she did all of that before her 30th anniversary!

Retired since January of 2020, Wozniacki’s presence will be deeply missed. But fortunately, fans of the Danish phenomenon can still admire her stunning good looks. Away from the court, Wozniacki can still rock a bikini and pose for a beautiful photoshoot like a real champ.

Anna Kournikova, Age 39 – Tennis

The fact that ‘Anna Kournikova’ was once one of the most-searched names on Google says it all. Even though many of Kournikova’s fans don’t even watch tennis, this gorgeous Russian beauty made a name for herself after getting some impressive results in the court, such as an Australian Open win.

Kournikova made it as far as number 8 of the world ranking, but she’s accustomed to being number 1 when it comes to beauty. Her breathtaking green eyes have caught the attention of Latin pop star Enrique Iglesias, who married Kournikova back in 2001.

Alana Blanchard, Age 30 – Surfing

The American surfer Alana Blanchard was practically born on the beach. Originally from Kauai, in Hawaii, she knows everything there is to know about surfboards, waves, and the ocean. Besides surfing for a living, this American beauty is also a model and a wetsuit designer.

In 2011, Blanchard’s emotions were put to the test after fellow surfer Bethany Hamilton lost her arm to a shark attack. Alana and Bethany are good friends since childhood, but the traumatic event has luckily not made the two talented surfers give up on the ocean. Alana and Bethany’s struggle is documented in the 2011 documentary Soul Surfer.

Blair O’Neal, Age 39 – Golf

Yet another pro golfer breaking the stereotypes usually associated with the game, Blair O’Neal is an American triple threat: she’s an athlete, a model, and a T.V. personality. While her stunning looks are probably the first thing you notice about her, it’s her talent with the club that got her to where she is today.

With an estimated prize pool of around $1 million, O’Neal got her “big break” after appearing in the… Big Break: Prince Edward Island T.V. show. She’s appeared recurrently in golf-related talk-shows and on the Golf Channel, and we find her smile as convincing as her moves on the golf course.

Alex Morgan, Age 31 – Soccer

Ask any European: American soccer will be made fun of. First, because it’s called soccer instead of football. Second, because the United States is still not as good in the game as most European countries. But there’s an exception. When it comes to female soccer, the U.S. is sitting on the very top, and Alex Morgan is their biggest star!

This center-forward from California has won every collective and individual award in the game, and she’s the current captain of the U.S. soccer team. But Alex is not only scoring goals on the pitch; she’s also doing it every single day in the “real-life” with her stunning blue eyes and girl-next-door appeal.

Alica Schmidt, Age 22 – Runner

She might only be 22 years old, but already, Alica Schmidt has managed to take over the world… quite literally. She is a Track and Field runner who, according to The Sun, might very well be the world’s prettiest athlete. Alica is German, and she has ongoing sponsorships from companies like Puma.

On top of having almost 1.5 million followers on Instagram, Schmidt also recently started a YouTube channel. Although so far, she’s only posted two videos, she already has over 33.1K subscribers! We’re looking forward to seeing her run in the upcoming Summer Olympics, which will be held in Tokyo in 2021.

Paige VanZant, Age 26 – Mixed Martial Arts

They say that, when you fight for a living, your face is going to get all swollen, and your looks will be ruined. But not when you’re so good you rarely take a hit. That’s how mixed martial arts fighter Paige VanZant managed to stay beautiful after over eight years of professional fighting.

Her MMA record is impressive, with eight wins out of 13 games, 2 of them via knock-out. We know VanZant looks like the sort of adorable girl you just want to hug, but make no mistake: if you get on her nerves, you will experience pain like you never did before!

Natalie Gulbis, Age 37 – Golf

If you’re not into golf, there’s a chance you still think about it as the boring hobby of some old, wealthy businessmen. But the American pro golfer, Natalie Gulbis, is proving every golf-stereotype wrong. A natural-born golfer, she entered her first tournament when she was only 7-years old! Since then, she has met nothing but success on the grass.

With four professional wins and around $4 million collected in prizes, Gulbis is not only extremely talented with the club, but she also looks great swinging it. She’s going to retire after the ending of the 2020 LPGA Tour, so you better run and watch some of her final performances!

Lauren Sesselmann, Age 37 – Soccer

The American-Canadian soccer player Lauren Sesselmann started as a forward before making the transition to defense. A superstar of the Canadian national soccer team, Sesselmann has played for nine different clubs throughout her career, including F.C. Kansas City and Santa Clarita Blue Heat.

Yes, many things have changed ever since Sesselmann got her breakthrough at the Purdue Boilermakers, the intercollegiate athletics team of Purdue University. But one thing has remained the same: Sesselmann’s girl-next-door looks and stunning blue eyes. But no matter how sweet Sesselmann may look off the field, you’ll not want to be playing against this talented defender and vociferous tackler.

Becky Lynch, Age 33 – Wrestling

A 3-times SmackDown Women’s Champion, wrestling beauty, Becky Lynch, is one of the most famous and highest-paid female wrestlers in the world. She was born in Limerick, in Ireland, and started wrestling in the local independent circuits, often tag-teaming with her brother.

Eventually, she made it to the U.S., wrestling’s world capital, and to the biggest stage of them all: the WWE. In 2006, a severe head injury threatened her promising career, but she came back stronger than ever a handful of years later. In the ring, Lynch’s known for her aggressive and self-centered style, but outside of it, she looks like a steamy sweetheart with gorgeous red hair.

Robin Bone, Age 26 – Pole Vaulting

Sadly, an injury has caused Canadian pole vaulter Robin Bone to always wear a helmet while competing. But don’t be sad just yet: whenever she’s not jumping high in the sky, you still have a chance to admire her beautiful blue-eyed face.

That Robin Bone is a gorgeous and fit female athlete is obvious, but she’s also a very promising one. Still 26 years-old, she has already competed in the Olympics, with some good results. Her talent is undeniable, but her good looks are the thing that’s putting the sport of pole vaulting on the map! She has a loyal fanbase, as well as over 50K followers on Instagram.

Michelle Jenneke, Age 27 – Hurdling

As a professional hurdler, Michelle Jenneke is used to avoiding the obstacles. But she also knows how to make the most of an opportunity. And back in 2012, her characteristic warm-up dance caused a viral sensation online. That was the beginning of the Michelle Jenneke phenomenon.

The Australian 27-year-old has made it to the cover of magazines, has modeled, and has even appeared in a stretching app. Besides being a natural-born sportswoman, Jenneke has both the looks and the brain to go with it. A Sydney University mechatronics student, she has, without a doubt, earned her spot on our list of gorgeous female athletes.

Silje Norendal, Age 27 – Snowboarding

Even though blonde, blue-eyed stunners are not a rarity in Scandinavia, the Norwegian snowboarder Silje Norendal still stands-out from the most. And not just because she looks like a fairytale princess. After all, this talented 27-year-old athlete is one of the biggest stars in snowboarding.

Norendal landed 4 Gold medals in 2 different X-Games competitions, and she also hit Silver and Bronze in two different categories of the World Championships. During the 2018 Winter Olympics in Korea, she was just a few points away from winning her first Olympic medal, finishing in the ever-ungrateful 4th position.

Eugenie Bouchard, Age 26 – Tennis

It’s about time Canada builds Eugenie Bouchard a statue! Besides being a beauty, this talented professional tennis player became the first Canadian woman to climb up to the top 5 of the world’s ranking. Born to be on the court, Bouchard started playing tennis at the young age of 5.

Fast-forward 11 years into the future, and she’s one of the most impressive female athletes in the game. With over $6 million collected in prize money, she’s one of the most promising tennis players in recent history, and, at the still-young age of 26, she looks like she still hasn’t reached her peak.

Maria Sharapova, Age 33 – Tennis

If gorgeous female athletes had just one name, we would dare to say it’s Maria Sharapova. This highly-talented Russian tennis player has been in the spotlight for so long it’s hard to believe she’s only 33 years old. Now retired, she’s no longer enjoying the ups-and-downs of competitive tennis. But she remains as beautiful as she ever was.

Living in the United States since 1994, Sharapova went from being a young girl from the remote city of Nyagan to become a 5-times World No. 1 tennis player. Looking like a supermodel goddess certainly helped, but we still think she looks her best while showing her skills on the court.
