World’s Hottest Athlete: Allison Stokke vs. Tatiana Grigorieva

#3. Allison Stokke vs. #6. Tatiana Grigorieva

#3. Allison Stokke

Allison Stokke became an internet sensation just over a year ago just as she was leaving high school. She’s (obviously) hot, and it didn’t help that her event of choice, pole vaulting, is ripe for innuendo for all the online hornballs. She’s a champion pole vaulter who set the national high school outdoor record, and now competes at Cal where she’s in her second year. Expect to see plenty more of Stokke and her toned olive skin in future competitions, Olympics, youtubes, and sports blogs.

#6. Tatiana Grigorieva

This Australian pole vaulter won a silver at the 2000 Olympic games, and looks very good naked (*cough cough* google images). After retiring from pole vaulting last year, Tatiana went on to compete in Dancing with the Stars and as “Olympia” on Gladiators (the Australian version of what we call American Gladiators). She has also appeared in international editions of GQ and Esquire, but best of all she is a picture perfect doll representing the land down under.

Remember … your vote counts… and so does our Celebrity Judge’s, Jimmy Trania of Sports Illustrated’s great Hot Clicks… And here is Jimmy’s take:

Stokke over Grigoriera: Young beats old.
