The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue is right around the corner, and that means there’s a whole new class of rookies. Normally, SI would have put it out by now, but because of increased winter sports coverage in the US it’s been pushed back to May when people are actually shopping for swimsuits. That’s totally why they make this magazine and what people buy it for, right? To browse for swimsuits so they know which kind they want to buy? Anyway, this year’s extended wait is worth it because we get to meet Kelsey Merritt.
I’ve been keeping this a secret for a while, and now I’m so excited I get to finally share with you all that I’m the newest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2019 Rookie!!! Ahhh thank you @SI_Swimsuit @mj_day for the opportunity to shoot for this iconic issue!!! ♥️😘 pic.twitter.com/oMxQLqrE0T

It seems impossible for a human being to wear that, but she certainly wears it well.
You can catch Kelsey and all the other rookie models in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue in May. I’m sure it just came with your subscription and you don’t even read it.
