Welcome to the first annual parallel bracket from The Cover 4! Some of our contemporaries compare NFL quarterbacks, rock bands, or cereals, but we are cutting straight to what we all want to talk about. Who is the hottest female athlete out there right now?
Now before you nominate the freshman midfielder from a Division II soccer team, prominence and success has played a role for the selection committee. All of the final ladies selected for this tournament have had some form of success either at the Olympic or professional level of their respective sports.
Below you will find the entire first round outlined (click this link to print full bracket: The Cover 4 – Hottest Female Athlete Bracket) with pictures and voting polls for your use, however we also encourage you to tweet, post, or even email your selections and brackets into us here at The Cover 4.
