The Olympic Village has been known to host its fair share of athlete hookups, so it’s no surprise that the popular dating app Tinder is taking the village by storm in Sochi.
American snowboarder Jamie Anderson, competing in her first Olympics this year, says she also has found herself competing for guys’ attention on Tinder.
“Tinder in the Olympic Village is next level,” Anderson told Us Weekly. “It’s all athletes! In the mountain village, it’s all athletes. It’s hilarious. There are some cuties on there.”
Anderson admits she might have become too enamored with the app.
“There was a point where I had to be like, OK, this is way too distracting,” Anderson said. “I deleted my account to focus on the Olympics.”
That choice worked out in Anderson’s favor, as she won the gold medal in women’s slopestyle earlier this week. With no other events on her slate for the rest of the Olympics, though, Anderson now can turn her focus away from the slopes and back to the swipes.
