Hannah Davis is known for her Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue cover wearing a skimpy two-piece and she's also the fiancee of Derek Jeter. Unknown to many she is a former junior ranked  tennis player. She competed on the Caribbean circuit.

Check out her GQ video where she gave some tips on forehand, the backhand, and the serve. She said that she's a small player so she focused on "footwork, stamina and beating them in other areas, I guess." Davis gave up playing competitive tennis at 18 when her modeling career began to take off.
