The sporting world kicked off the new year with celebrations and messages from some of its biggest stars — including those with the highest public profiles, like the so-called “world’s sexiest athlete.”
German Olympic runner Alica Schmidt gave fans a peek into her New Year’s festivities, donning a chic strapless dress for the occasion.
The 27-year-old track star greeted her 5.5 million Instagram followers with a happy new year message and playfully captioned her story, saying she was “in my hosting era.”
