Julia Mancuso
Age: 29
Sport: Alpine Skiing
There’s something inherently sexy about a woman who owns what she does for a living, and that’s why we’re so drawn to Julia Mancuso. When it comes to alpine skiing—which is Mancuso's passion and her career—no other American woman has taken home more medals in the sport. She grabbed the gold back at the 2006 Winter Olympics, so we can only hope she experiences the same success this time around.

Lolo Jones
Age: 31
Sport: Bobsleigh
You may recognize Lolo—and those perfectly sculpted legs—from her time spent clearing Olympic hurdles on the track for Team USA. But after 15+ years of lacing up her spikes, it appears she’s ready for a new challenge. Enter: Jones making her debut as a part of the women's U.S. Bobsleigh team in Sochi. She may not be rocking spandex shorts and a sports bra during this new Olympic feat of hers; but have you seen those skin-tight bodysuits? Yeah—we’re not complaining either.

Sarah Hendrickson
Age: 19
Sport: Ski Jumping
Not entirely sure what ski jumping is? Allow us to simplify: The skier travels down an insanely high take-off ramp, and ultimately gets launched out over a steep mountain slope. The goal?

Even more impressive: Not only is this Hendrickson’s first time to the Games, this is the first time women are allowed to compete in ski jumping at the Olympics. Our fingers are crossed for this 19-year-old sweetheart—are yours?
