We “Like”! The 10 Sexiest Athletes on Instagram

We’ve clicked on these beauties so much, we need physical therapy.

We waded through the seemingly endless piles of food and dog photos to find you the hottest female athlete Instagram feeds on earth. Follow away!


Alana Blanchard

The pro surfer, swimsuit designer, and expert sex-er up-er of iPhone photos has one of the most consistently steamy Instagrams out there. We’d recommend keeping an eye on it (as well as the pages of Maxim, where you might find Ms. Blanchard very soon – wink-wink).

Victoria Azarenka

This Belarusian (Belarusite? Belaruskie?) is the former women’s tennis number one, but she is the current women’s tennis number one in our humble opinion. (We should note, we don’t watch tennis).  

Hannah Teter

Hannah Teter can shred the powder like nobody’s business, but it’s these warm-weather shots that we like the most. 

Michelle Wie

Golfing is not known for churning out beautiful and fit athletes (ahem, John Daly). But apparently, no one told Michelle Wie that.

Maria Kanellis

Don’t let these sultry photos fool you, this firecracker is a professional wrestler whose passion can often be manifested as a powerbomb. 

Ronda Rousey

The aforementioned powerbombs might be a walk in the park compared to what this MMA beauty does for a living. We’ll observe her beautiful brutality via Instagram, out of face-punching distance. 

Allyson Felix

Allyson Felix, a four-time gold medal winner, has the legs to leave us in the dust every time we show up at her house with flowers and champagne, so I guess we are stuck to following her exploits online. We’re ready to commit whenever you are, Allyson!

Shawn Johnson

Shawn Johnson has danced on the Olympic mat and danced with the stars, but it wasn’t until she danced onto our smartphone screens that we were truly invested in this gymnast.

Another Olympian makes the list, including a gorgeous post from our very own Big Game party in NOLA.

Michelle Jenneke

This Australian hurdler first caught our attention with her pre-race shimmy, but held onto it with her revealing Instagram feed.
