Thumb-Hook Thursday: Bo Krsmanovic, 2017

As you may have noticed, my mid-week themed posts have all featured one magnificent woman.


As a bonus, here's Bo from 2016 in one of those rare photos that could have been used for Topless Tuesday, One-Piece Wednesday, or Thumb-Hook Thursday.


She could do it all, that Bo.

One-Piece Wednesday: Bo Krsmanovic, 2017

Speaking of Bo's nipples...


SI has really stopped hiding them, haven't they.


Come back, Bo!

Topless Tuesday: Bo Krsmanovic (and Emily DiDonato), 2016

So yeah, you can pretty much see Bo's nipple in this shot. A full year before I noticed Bianca's.

UPDATE 9/8/19: Emily DiDonato. Same year. Same angle. Same result. Eat your heart out, Bianca!

Calendar Girls, Revisited: 1996, 1997, 1998

This rounds out all the models I know of who were born during the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Desk Calendar years.

In 1996, Vendela stretched out in a pretty white one-piece and welcomed 2018 rookie Alexis Ren on November 23.


1997 brought us two more 2018 rookies: Robin Holzken (April 19, welcomed by a silver-bikini'd Rebecca Romijn)...


...and Chase Carter (June 10, welcomed by a sand-duned Manon).


And finally, in 1998, Taylor meets Sailor! Sort-of-2018-rookie Sailor Brinkley Cook arrived on July 2, welcomed by Niki Taylor in a pretty green bikini.

And Sailor, who as of this writing is 20 years, 38 weeks, and 5 days old, is the youngest SI swimsuit girl in existence.

That record may be broken in about a month and a half, when we have the full rookie class and all their disturbingly recent birthdays.
