We’re tired of hearing about how all the hot chicks in the sports world come from Italy, Russia, and Brazil — it’s just not true! We’ve got a bunch of home-grown hotties right here in the US to fantasize about. Check ‘em out, it’s downright patriotic! We have hand picked America's finest female athletes and categorized them by Girl-Next-Door, The Wild Thang, Athletic/Tomboy and Exotic Beauties.

Erica Blasberg (golf) — She’s the girl next door with the gorgeous, bowl-you-over smile, (kind of reminiscent of Amy Adams, the star of “Enchanted”).
Natalie Coughlin (swimming) — The owner of two gold medals. Pretty and petite, she’s your best friend’s sister who lives next door. The one you didn’t realize you had a crush on until she’d hooked up with somebody else.
Sasha Cohen (figure skating) — So little and so cute! Very unlike Sacha Baron Cohen…
Jenny Adams (track and field) — The girl next door with just a little bit of the princess about her. Check out the images of her spread-eagled on the track online — hottt!!
Jennie Finch (softball) — With long blond hair and an easy-going grin, she makes you wish they all could be California girls…
Natalie Gulbis (golf) — A leggy blonde that started playing shortly after she could walk. —And boy does she look great in a bikini!

Danica Patrick (motor sports) — Born in Wisconsin, at only 5’2’’ she’s tiny. Despite her racy photos, she declined Playboy — the utter sorrow of it all!
Missy Gibson (surfing) — Who is she? Who cares… she’s crazy hot. Apparently, she surfs, or something…
Ashley Harkleroad (tennis)- Even cuter than the average blonde tennis player, and she loves to wear itsy-bitsy little outfits to her matches. Apparently both very sweaty and scantily clad most of the time. That totally works for us!
Amanda Beard (swimming) — Now that she posed nude in Playboy, who cares how she plays?!

Dara Torres (swimming) — A blonde hottie, she’s older than many on our list, but still smokin’, even after competing in 5 olympic games!
Gabrielle Reece (volleyball)— Tall, blonde, with legs that go all the way up… she started out in modeling, and then went into volleyball. Who’d have thunk it?
Logan Tom (volleyball) — A sassy brunette that you’d be okay with beating you when arm-wrestling… as long as she gave you a kiss after.
Amy Acuff (high-jump) — a Texan, a high jump competitor and now, a model in Playboy, among others! This is one blonde you’re likely to see more of…

Malia Jones (surfing) — Hawaiian surfer. ‘Nuff said.
Misty May (volleyball) — This raven haired beauty can show us her Olympic gold medal any time….
Lokelani McMichael (triathlon)- In the Ironman Triathlon, she was the youngest ever female finisher. You’ve probably seen her in Maxim. Yeah, she’s Hawaiian, too. (Drool…)
Mia St. John (boxing) — Her looks pack a good punch, too.
Haley Cope (swimming) — Whether blonde or brunette, her come-hither stare has a mystery to it that even a Playboy pic can’t subdue.
