There are two versions of the heptathlon. The first is an outdoor competition for women, and is the combined event for women contested in the Athletics program of the Olympics and in the IAAF World Championships in Athletics. The IAAF World Combined Events Challenge determines a yearly women’s heptathlon champion.

You are enjoy the top most sexy female athletes in Beijing Olympic 2008. Everybody agrees with me for these top ten hot and sexy athletes.

10. Amanda Beard
Despite the unappealingly masculine name, Ms Beard is in fact an American Olympic swimmer and model. She’s not shy, either: in her time she’s appeared in Sports Illustrated, Playboy and good ol’ FHM. Which is nice.
9. Gretchen BleilerYou might not guess it to look at her, but young Gretchen is the big name in female snowboarding. When she’s not tearing up half-pipes, she likes looking pretty, playing with her hair, and mini-golf. At a guess, anyway.
8. Amy Taylor The archetypal image of a female footballer may leave you quivering under your Subbuteo-print bedsheets, but this one’s different: she’s pretty. She’s Australian. She could kick your arse at five-a-side – she’s the perfect woman.
7. Biba Golic
Table tennis is cool. That’s a fact. We know this because any sport that brings us a woman as hot as Biba has to be cool. Has to be.
6. Maria SharapovaMaria, Maria, Maria. Classier than Kournikova, prettier than Nadal, but still no match for Ivanovic in the hotness stakes. So near, and yet, so far.
5. Natalie GulbisIn such a refined and regal sport as golf, it may seem a touch vulgar to ask, but still – how does she swing the club so well with such ample breasts? It’s quite the conundrum…
4. Allison StokkeAt the age of just 17, Allison was pole-vaulted (boom boom) to stardom by being, well… hot. Swiftly becoming an internet phenomenon, she’s brought a new found respect to the stick-waggling profession. And by ‘respect’ we mean ‘lust’.
3. Nikki GudexHer name may make her sound like some kind of robotic seductress, but in reality she’s a world-class mountain biker. Her legs look long and sleek, but underneath lie pistons of steel. Our guess is she could probably beat the crap out of you too. Yes, we can tell.
2. Bia and Branca FeresThere are two of them! And they’re both stunning! And they do synchronised swimming! That means bikinis – yes it does.
1. Ana IvanovicWe’ve loved this racket-wielding siren for quite some time now. She’s just so damn beautiful – which is why we’ve made her number one.
