There are plenty of hot female athletes, and no, Danica Patrick is not one of them. That's not the point here, though. We're talking about sex and the female athlete. These women not only are gorgeous and sexy, they also do things in the athletic arena that make us drift off to a happy place.

5. Lokelani McMichael

If you can get past the fact that Lokelani McMichael can probably kick your ass, you'll see the possibilities. Hell, if you're into that sort of thing, then she's right up your ally. McMichael, who's Hawaiian, is a triathlete and surfer who completed her first Ironman when she was 18. Stamina and endurance, my friends.

4. Kristi Leskinen

Kristi Leskinen is a freestyle skier, which means she takes the jumps on the mountain you're afraid to and then does all kinds of twists, turns and flips in the air. In other words, she's badass. She's also, well…look at her. You know snow bunnies like to have a good time.

3. Tanith Belbinlaw logo2x b

You know what they say about people with rhythm – it means they're probably good in bed. Tanith Belbin is an ice dancer with five medals on the world stage (one Olympic and four at the World Figure Skating Championships), so she's obviously got the moves to make her bed-worthy.

2. Maria Sharapovalaw logo2x b

There's something awesome about female tennis players. It's probably because, unlike a lot of other female athletes, tennis players can combine athleticism with beauty and sex appeal. Russian-born Maria Sharapova does it better than the rest. What's even better is she has really low standards – she's engaged to former Los Angeles Lakers' guard Sasha Vujacic. One look at that dirtball and you know she's filthy in the bedroom.

1. Nastia Liukin

Kramer said it best when he encouraged Jerry to have sex with a gymnast because they're “flexible.” Case closed. The only debate is whether your gymnast of choice is Nastia Liukin, Alicia Sacramone or Shawn Johnson. Liukin gets the nod because she looks the best in high heels and a cocktail dress.

[EDITOR'S NOTE] And those heels and that dress would look best on my floor.
