2. Lindsey Vonn
One of just two female skiers to win four World Cup overall championships, Lindsey Vonn is a multitalented athlete. In addition to her dominance on the slopes, Vonn is known around sports as one of the most fashionable (and gorgeous) athletes in extreme sports.
Vonn was the first American woman to ever win a gold medal in downhill skiing, which she won at the 2010 Winter Olympics. She’s also one of just six women to win World Cup races in all five disciplines of alpine skiing: downhill, super-G, giant slalom, slalom, and super combined. Injuries forced her to retire in 2019, but not before she managed to win her second Olympic bronze medal in Pyeongchang.
