Stephanie Rice: (Swimming-Australia) Heading for Olympic 2012

Stephanie Rice currently holds the world record in the 400-metre women's individual medley, and won three gold medals at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. 

She's one of the hottest female athletes in Olympic 2012 London to look for and she's hoping to take some more gold medals home.

In September 2010, Rice came under fire when she made a remark that was considered homophobic on Twitter following a Rugby Union match in which the Australian Wallabies defeated the South African Springboks. Rice's Twitter message said ‘Suck on that faggots!’ Rice later removed the remark and apologized for it; however, Rice's sponsor Jaguar severed all ties with her and requested the return of a loan vehicle. Rice is shown here in her spread in FHM magazine.
