The Hottest Athletes from 50 Countries

Image via 3.bp.blogspot.com

Every country has beautiful women. You can search the entire globe and find at least one woman from every single country who qualifies as pretty. Try it out sometime—just don't ask me to pick up the expenses. That one you have to do on your own dime.

But, just like life, we have limits as to how many countries we can feature in one presentation. You wouldn't want to be bombarded by hotties from Bermuda, would you? I think we need to keep things simple and find hot female athletes from 50 countries I have carefully selected.

Since the Olympics are still a few weeks away, you need something to occupy that big brain, and why not look at the hottest female athletes from 50 different countries? Enjoy.

Carolina Torres is a former Chilean pole vaulter. She now spends her time walking around poles instead of jumping over them.

Efthalia Koutroumanidou is quite the mouthful. I think I need a water break after typing that one.
