## Simone Biles

This is quite a scrolldown for me. The bodice could just go all the way down and we'd have an interesting evening gown, but instead we have to make space for a tutu and then some sheerness just for the heck of it. If she rips off her skirt to perform a roundoff back handspring something-something, then okay, but spoiler: She did not, unless the afterparty got wild.

## Rebeca Andrade

Rebeca Andrade is fabulous and wears GLORIOUS leotards in competition; I wish whoever makes those had styled her for this. It's the most boring possible alternative.

## with Nadia Comaneci

I love that they got the ladies in a shot with Nadia, who is wearing a jumpsuit (which isn't immediately obvious here). It also feels like she borrowed that blazer from someone else.

## Eileen Gu

This is quite fun.

## Lindsey Vonn

This is quite boring, but her head looks amazing.

## Ariarne Titmus

She is the heir apparent to Katie Ledecky's long-distance swimming crown, besting her in the 400 meters at the Olympics (but not yet the 800). I am not sure this fits her; it's like she went to the tailor to pick up her bridesmaid dress and found out on the day that they'd mixed up the measurements with someone else's.

## Mondo Duplantis and Desire Inglander

Mondo is such a goofball. He's the record-smashing pole vaulter who stole everyone's hearts at the Olympics. They are VERY cute together, and she looks stunning.

## Qu Zimo

He's the reigning and two-time wheelchair ping-pong Paralympics champion in both singles AND doubles. So yeah, he's pretty good at it. He's so cute and he's only 23, so he's going to snag a fair few more of those, I suspect.

## Tegla Loroupe

She was the first African woman to win the NYC Marathon (which she then won again, along with several others), and held the world record for three years. She also organized the Refugee team at the 2016 Rio Olympics, so yes, she looks like the royalty she is.

## Arisa Trew

She won skateboarding gold at the 2024 Olympics... at age 14\. (She turns 15 next month.) Where do you EVEN go from there?!? I guess you just keep winning them.

## Letsile Tebogo

You might recall him from the 200m, at which he beat Bednarek and Lyles this summer, making him Botswana's first ever gold medalist. It was thrilling even though I was sad for Kenny. I don't think this suit quite fits him; he's 6 feet tall, so that should be attainable. Someone please get the champ a tailor.

## Ana Peleteiro

She's a triple-jumper and owns the world indoor gold medal. Her dress is super on her; with that and the red carpet, she's evoking the flag of her native Spain. I love it when a plan comes together.

## Martin Hromkovic and Belinda Bencic

She's a tennis player who is back on the tour after having a baby last year, which is the sport's favorite storyline; they pay a LOT of attention to whether people who are mothers have won majors. I both get it, and find it tiresome. Belinda looks so glamorous.

## Nawal El Moutawakel

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/04/GettyImages-2211303665-1745284205.jpg)

MADRID, SPAIN - APRIL 21: Nawal El Moutawakel attends the 2025 Laureus World Sport Awards red carpet at Palacio De Cibeles on April 21, 2025 in Madrid, Spain. (Photo by Isabel Infantes/Getty Images)

She "won the inaugural women's 400 metres hurdles event at the 1984 Summer Olympics, and is the first Moroccan, Arab, African, and Muslim woman to win an Olympic gold," per Wikipedia. I love this on her and also think that she looks a bit like Maya Rudolph in disguise.

## Kelly Slater

He's won the Laureus Sportsman of the Year award four times. Not too shabby. (He's a championship surfer -- one of the guys responsible for the sport being what it is now.)

## Beatrice Vio

She's a six-time medalist -- two gold -- in wheelchair fencing at the Paralympics, and has three world championships, too. One of those wins involved her opponent's foil accidentally piercing her mask?!?!?! She lost her legs AND her forearms to meningitis as a child, and is a proponent of vaccines because science is a miracle. What a rock star.

## Teresa Perales

Not only is Teresa the current record holder in the 100m freestyle at the Paralympics -- which she set last year -- but [she's won 28 medals in 24 years of competition there](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teresa%5FPerales?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Holy smokes.

## Jiang Yuyan

She won the "Laureus World Sportsperson of the Year with a Disability award" and is basically the Michael Phelps of the sport, having won seven golds in 2024 -- all her events, and in every stroke. That dress is fantastic.

## Edwin Moses

He's the chairman of the Laureus World Sports Academy, in addition to being a badass athlete himself, and something of a pioneer in drug testing. Classic tux for a classic king.

## Donna Vekic

Donna plays tennis. I love how dramatic this is. This dress sweeps in and out of rooms, whether or not you as the wearer want to.

## Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas

I guess they're back together again! (More tennis players.) Her dress needs a hoik.

## Arthur Borges and Garbiñe Muguruza

She's an ex-tennis player who is now an ambassador for Laureus, and the red is killer on her. He is her husband, and "a businessman and model." You can tell on that last one. He's serving whatever ocular steel he can manage.

## Katarina Witt

What figure skating fan in the 80s DIDN'T love Katarina Witt.

## Carlos Alcaraz

Carlito! He wears the double-breasted jacket so well.

## Rafa Nadal

WE MISS YOU, RAFA.
