Tinder reveals which athletes at the Rio Olympics received most right-swipes during the Games
OLYMPIANS who play tennis and table tennis received the most right-swipes on Tinder during the Rio Games.
The popular dating app has released data which reveals which group of athletes were the most 'liked' in the Olympic Village.
Tinder compiled the information based on what athletes in the Village put in their bio in the period between the Opening and Closing Ceremony, such as "Professional discus thrower," or "World's fastest man".
The results show men who played tennis received the most right-swipes while women who played table tennis were 'liked' most.
They therefore suggest Britain's Andy Murray - who won gold in the men's singles tennis in Rio - is the most desirable athlete.
Murray, 25, beat Swiss star Roger Federer 6-2 6-1 6-4 in the final to take top gong.
