Spanish tennis player Paula Badosa has spoken out about the importance of athletes acting as models, saying it helps to eliminate unrealistic beauty standards. Badosa believes that athletes who participate in campaigns and photo shoots inspire others to feel confident in their own bodies.

“I love to see athletes campaigning. It is very inspiring. It’s very important for girls to see these athletes posing, that you don’t have to be a size 34 to feel good. I have a 14-year-old sister and I try to explain all this to her because they don’t understand it so young. For me, being an example in that regard is crucial,” Badosa said to Glamour.
