Winter is coming, and it’s necessary to take a look at the hottest male swimmers of 2014 to make your winter a little warmer.

Although the likes of Ryan Lochte, Nathan Adrian and Michael Phelps (only in some very specific angles) make us swoon, the ultimate hottest male swimmer of 2014 would have to be Chinese swimmer Ning Zetao, who may or may not have a girlfriend, but that is no concern of ours.

Aside from people speculating whether he has a girlfriend or not, the 21-year-old swimmer had made headlines recently after winning gold medals in the 50 meters, 100 meters, 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay and 4 x 100m Medley Relay at the 2014 Asian Games. He set the Asian record in the Men’s 100m Freestyle Final and Men’s 4x100m Freestyle Relay Final.

His swimming accomplishments aren’t the only things that has put him in the top slot on the list of hottest male swimmers.

His bashful smile is one that needs to be screenshot and framed on a wall.

Also, he has abs that make us want to forget how to swim just so he can save us.
