Can’t tell if an Olympian is attractive under all those layers of gear? It’s hard to identify perfect bone structure and luxurious locks underneath layers of spandex, jackets, helmets and goggles, so we took the liberty of doing all the heavy lifting and hard research to bring you scientifically accurate results. Check out this list and decide once and for all if your favorite Olympians are as hot as you imagined.
Gus Kenworthy, Team USA, freestyle skiing
Between saving puppies worldwide and proudly representing the LGBTQ community, Gus Kenworthy is undoubtedly one of the most familiar faces in Pyeongchang.
He’s not afraid to bare it all for his sport.
Or show off his goofy side.

John Daly, Team USA, skeleton race
It’s hard to tell under the helmet and all the spandex, but John Daly has declared he has the most perfect hair – and he is not wrong.

Chris Mazdzer, Team USA, luge
Chris Mazdzer made history as the first American athlete to win a medal in the men’s singles luge event, and it doesn’t hurt that he’s a major cutie.

Joey Mantia, Team USA, speed skating
No one speed skates in a suit like Joey Mantia. Well, no one speed skates in suits at all. But that’s beside the point.
No matter the suit, Joey is easy on the eyes.

Nick proves he’s not all about himself.

Now for some international hotties!
Scotty James, Team Australia, snowboarding
At 6’2, Scotty James stands above the competition both in skill and incredible good looks. A bronze medalist in the legendary Halfpipe competition where Shaun White made history, Scotty is easily the most beloved Australian athlete. Just look at that smile. So pure.
Looks like the Hemsworth brothers aren’t the only hotties from the land down under.
Again, just look at that smile.

Mark McMorris, Team Canada, snowboarding
Barely a year after a life-threatening snowboarding injury that left a broken jaw and left arm, a ruptured spleen, a pelvic fracture, rib fractures and a collapsed lung, Mark McMorris is back on the Olympic slopes. Already a bronze medalist in this year’s Slopestyle competition, Mark is one you’ll want to watch for both talent and looks.
A true testament to attractiveness: the ability to somehow pull of a bucket hat.
