The Olympics are officially underway, and while the ramp-up hasn’t been without its fair share of terrible press — everything from raw sewage in the water to inadequate housing for athletes to that pesky ‘ole zika — at the end of the day, audiences will still tune in to catch top athletes competing at the highest level on the world’s biggest stage.
And oh — these athletes!

Lots of beautiful bodies that are somehow weirdly unsexy.
