Olympic athletes often don't get paid to do anything other than look good. In that vein, Attractive Olympians handicaps which athletes may rake in endorsement deals after the Olympics.

Leisel Jones has been a member of the Australian national swimming team since she was 14. At 15, she shocked the world by earning silver in the 100-meter breaststroke in front of the home crowd at the 2000 Olympics, but four years later -- as the prohibitive favorite in the 100m and 200m -- she came up with only bronze and silver, respectively.

Despite two Olympics without an individual gold medal (she did earn one as a member of Australia's 4x100 medley relay n 2004), Jones may be the most dominant breaststroker in history. She set her first world record in 2003, and she now owns nine of the ten fastest times in both the 100m and 200m. And she's heading into Beijing with times close to her records.

But enough talk about Jones's "athletic ability" and "place in history." What we really care about are her physical attributes, am I right? Hey everyone, come quick! We've got a blonde Australian with a beautifully toned body! Let's look at more pictures of her and vote on how attractive she is!

"You look lovely tonight, Miss Jones. What's that scent you're wearing? Residual chlorine in your skin, you say? Marvelous!"
