I give away a lot too." See more photos of Robyn here! 04 of 13 HUNTER MCGRADY: 150 Josie Clough/SPORTS ILLUSTRATED "Probably like 150! I love swimsuits. The smaller the better.

I love different kinds of bathing suits but my favorite are one-piece bathing suits -- I just love them I don’t know why. My boyfriend is like 'Oh, no wear a two piece,' but I love them. I don’t care because the best part about it is you can wear it with shirts and go to brunch then you take off the shirt and go in the ocean." See more photos of Vita here!
