Our Beijing bureau has been working around the clock to make sure that you stay up-to-date on all the latest Olympic news—specifically, which athletes have taken their clothes off for a photo. Our Chinese spies could find no information about any sporting events or medal winners—some guy won a swim race, maybe?—but they do tell us that the latest German edition of Playboy will have four different collectors covers starring four female athletes currently competing at the Olympics. They are sailor Petra Niemann, canoeist Nicole Reinhardt, judoka Romy Tarangul, and Katharina Scholz, a field hockey star (pictured above) who worries that her fortuitously-timed cover might distract people from all the field hockey, which doesn't really seem possible. Check out her fellow countrywomen below and keep dreaming about all that gold jewelry.
