David Beckham. Christiano Ronaldo. Derek Jeter.

Although, they may be some of the greatest athletes of their generation, but they also serve to do one thing: make women swoon.

They hail from soccer, hockey, baseball, NASCAR, football, and tennis, and from across the globe.

Although, there are many, many more attractive athletes, these are the top 10 hottest men of sports...so women, get ready.

#10--Derek Jeter

NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 21: Derek Jeter #2 of the New York Yankees runs to first base against the Baltimore Orioles during the last regular season game at Yankee Stadium on September 21, 2008 in the Bronx borough of New York City. The Yankees are playing the

Men will either hate or love Jeter, women will universally love the face of the Yankees.

I'm unsure if it's the smile, the tight pants, or the pinstripes, but there's nothing like Derek Jeter to make women want to annoy their boyfriends and become a Yankees fan.

#9--Tom Brady

Who cares if he's engaged to a Victoria's Secret supermodel?

Tom Brady is the epitome of attractive to many women, including me. Despite the fact, I hate the Patriots, I put football aside to indulge in some eye candy.

#8--Jamie McMurray

ATLANTA - MARCH 06: Jamie McMurray, driver of the #26 Irwin Industrial Tools Ford walks along pit road before qualifying for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Kobalt Tools 500 at the Atlanta Motor Speedway on March 6, 2009 in Hampton, Georgia. (Photo by Chri

So what if he wears more hair products than most women?

That chiseled jawline and the fact that he drives a car at 180+ miles per hour gets me going. Now all he needs is a signature move, like Carl Edwards. Preferably something that involves ripping his shirt off...

#7--Rafael Nadal

INDIAN WELLS, CA - MARCH 22: Rafael Nadal of Spain poses with the championship trophy after defeating Andy Murray of Great Britain in the final of the BNP Paribas Open on March 22, 2009 at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in Indian Wells, California. (Pho

Not many women know about tennis, but I'm sure at least a few know about Rafael Nadal.

The only score they care about is "love," and I'm sure they'd be more than willing to let him teach them how to "backhand."

#6--Cristiano Ronaldo

LONDON - MARCH 21: Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United runs with the ball during the Barclays Premier League match between Fulham and Manchester United at Craven Cottage on March 21, 2009 in London, England. (Photo by Ryan Pierse/Getty Images)

As the new—and incredibly attractive—face of Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo has done his best to embrace his good looks.

Ronaldo has been seen frolicking in the French Riviera, and my, wasn't that nice? Screw soccer, just wander around shirtless all day...

#5--Reggie Bush

NEW YORK - FEBRUARY 16: Reggie Bush of the New Orleans Saints backstage at the Tracy Reese Fall 2009 fashion show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in the Salon at Bryant Park on February 16, 2009 in New York City. (Photo by Amy Sussman/Getty Images for

Kim Kardashian, can we please borrow Reggie for one day? Pleeeeeeeeease? He's so cute and strong...

#4--Mike Green

SUNRISE, FL - FEBRUARY 15: Mike Green #52 of the Washington Capitals skates against the Florida Panthers on February 15, 2009 at the BankAtlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida. (Photo by Jon Greenberg/Getty Images)

Despite being relatively unknown outside the world of hockey, Mike Green is rough and tough...and hot. However, he's not as my number 3, and another hockey player...

#3--Henrik Lundqvist

UNIONDALE, NY - MARCH 05: Henrik Lundqvist #30 of the New York Rangers warms up before playing against the New York Islanders on March 5, 2009 at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images)

The title of hottest man between the pipes belongs to New York Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist.

This Swede has dashing good looks AND flexibility going for him, but it's a shame he doesn't get to show his pretty face more often.

#2--Andy Roddick

KEY BISCAYNE, FL - MARCH 26: Andy Roddick speaks to the media at a press conference during day four of the Sony Ericsson Open at the Crandon Park Tennis Center on March 26, 2009 in Key Biscayne, Florida. (Photo by Michael Heiman/Getty Images)

Those boyish good looks, arm muscles, and that smile: all part of Andy Roddick's charm.

Roddick looks like someone you could take home to mom, but I'm not so sure I'd want to. She might steal him.

#1--David Beckham

So cliche, yet so attractive. Between the Armani underwear advertisements and everything else he does, David Beckham is the epitome of hot.

His wife brings some women to the point of lesbianism, and his children are adorable.

David Beckham IS hot.
