One of Morgan's famous teammates, Leroux has gained a lot of popularity over the years for two things -- her immense talent on the pitch and her many bikini pictures on Instagram.

While Hosseini has quietly reached stardom levels on the competitive side of things, she's clearly got the whole package. She's beautiful, talented, smart and does a great job of marketing herself. This blonde surfer/model is certainly one worth watching.

The Russia native earned a career-high ranking of No. 10 in 2013, shortly after winning a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics.

Most people forget about rock climbing as a sport, but it's easy to remember when you know who Blair-Coyle is. As long as you're not too focused on her hands (they're pretty rough -- you know, from grasping rocks all day), it's easy to get lost in Sierra's beauty.
Anna Sidorova, Curling

Sidorova may get most of her fame from her looks, but she's a superb athlete and one of the bright spots of the Russian curling team. She also dabbled in figure skating, but was forced to retire from the sport after an injury at age 13.
