Grace Hayden Proves Sports Journalism Can Include Bikinis!

If you thought sports media was all spreadsheets, scorecards, and men yelling, Grace Hayden is here to remind you that conditioning comes in many forms, including vitamin D, a pool and a red bikini.

Grace Hayden. Sports presenter. Cricket royalty. Human reminder that Australian genetics are designed to be in bikinis.

She was born Into Cricket,the daughter of Matthew Hayden, a man who spent his career bludgeoning bowlers into early retirement. Naturally, Grace chose a slightly different path: sports journalism, broadcasting, and occasionally producing bikini clickbait for the internet.

She covers cricket. She covers racing. She covers major sporting events and sometimes she is barely covered.

Can someone be both extremely qualified to discuss cricket tactics and look good in bikinis, apparently the two aren't mutually exclusive.

Thirst-trapping can exist from all kinds of people with different backgrounds and interests. It is the cross-section of humanity, it brings us all together in these times of war. There will always be women in bikinis and the men to enjoy them in bikinis.

Despite the bikini, she's a master of her sport and she’ll break down a match with authority, then casually remind everyone she lives near an ocean and it is currently summer there.

We like skills outside of bikini posing, it makes the bikini posing have more substance.

In a world where sports personalities are not always in bikinis, she makes a good case for why they should be in bikinis. Everything is better in a bikini.
