Olympic Babe Of The Day – Stephanie Rice

Our Olympic Babe Of The Day today is Australian swimmer Stephanie Rice. She won three gold medals in Beijing, but is having a tough go of it in London, due to shoulder surgery before the Games. It’s so bad that she’s considering retirement at the ripe old age of 24 rather than try for a comeback in 2016 in Rio. With her looks a modeling career might be her consolation.

Prior to the Olympics she caused a stir by posting a picture on Instagram in a bikini, which seems in retrospect a little silly.

Note: Ladies do not think we’re leaving you out. Wizbang Pop! is doing the Olympic Hunk Of The Day. Today’s hunk is bronze medal winner in all around gymnastics, Dannell Leyva.

You can keep up with all the selections this year here.

    When did Olympic athletes start posing for cheesecake photos?
    (And why did they wait so long?)

      Because until recently communist nations like the former East Germany gave them so many steroids that the female athletes looked more like Bruce Jenner.
