‘World’s sexiest athlete’ Alica Schmidt shares pic of her ‘first and only tattoo’ on intimate body part after Olympics
ALICA SCHMIDT has braved the needle to get her “first and only” tattoo.
The stunning German athlete, 26, competed at this summer’s Olympic Games in Paris.
Schmidt raced in the mixed 4x400m relay at the Stade de France in the French capital.
The 26-year-old achieved a lifelong dream of becoming an Olympian after missing out in Tokyo 2020.
She described the Games as an “emotional rollercoaster” after her relay team failed to make it out of the heats.
Schmidt has chosen to mark the occasion with some ink, revealing to her 6 million Instagram fans she had braved her first tattoo.
The runner – who in 2017 was named Sexiest Athlete Alive by Australia’s Busted Coverage – documented her trip to the parlour in an Instagram story.
She is seen lying on a treatment table before revealing the finished product – the six Olympic rings tattooed on her outer thigh.
Schmidt captioned the post: “I’m sooo happy!! It turned out exactly how I wanted it.”
Despite disappointment on the track in Paris, the German posted a motivational message to her millions of fans in August.

She wrote: “As an athlete I am still not where I want to be and maybe I will never be.
“And to those athletes who didn’t make it to Paris this year, never stop believing in yourself.
“It’s a bumpy road and one day all your hard work will eventually pay off!”
Following her adventures in Paris, Schmidt embarked on a string of glamourous holidays.
She visited Italy, Thailand and the Maldives, wowing her fans with bikini-beach snaps from around the world.
Schmidt also went public with her photographer boyfriend Fredi Richter-Menda in June.
According to BILD, the pair have been an item for over eight years.
