Female Athletes Criticize Sydney Sweeney's Nude Gambling Ad

Amy Hunt, a British sprinter, publicly criticized actress Sydney Sweeney following her nude advertisement for the sports prediction market Novig. This occurred after Hunt finished fourth in the 200m final at the World Athletics Ultimate Championship in Budapest.

During a post-race interview, Hunt addressed Sweeney directly, emphasizing the representation of women's sports. American gymnast Gracie Kramer also expressed her frustration on Instagram, highlighting the contrast between Sweeney's portrayal and the reality of female athletes.

Sweeney has responded to the backlash by sharing images of various athletes posing nude for different media, including notable figures like Serena Williams and Ronda Rousey. She has also become an equity partner in Novig, which differentiates itself by focusing solely on sports betting.
