Singles are looking to score with Olympians — even from thousands of miles away.
US-based content creator Sofia Elizabeth set her Hinge location to the Olympic Village in the hopes of earning first place in an athlete’s heart despite living on a different continent, and to her surprise, it might have worked.
“At first, I wasn’t seeing any Olympians, so I decided to get busy swiping,” the TikTokker explained in a viral video that has scored over 14 million views.
After swiping past the non-athletes, Sofia finally landed on the profile of an Olympian and the pair “instantly hit it off.”
While she didn’t name her match, she claimed that the Olympian took home the “first gold medal” for Team USA, though she didn’t provide any proof.
“That’s my match, baby, that’s my match,” she jokingly cheered. “I look better in gold anyways.”
The Post has reached out to Sofia for comment.
Viewers championed the unconventional dating hack, calling Sofia “iconic” and “a true patriot.”
“Get it girl,” quipped one person.
“This is THE ONLY Olympic update I need. You are a true patriot,” another cheered.
“I am rooting for this match,” commented someone else.
For fellow singles wanting to meet their match in the Olympic Village, Sofia gave a lengthy tutorial in a subsequent clip, explaining that she chose Hinge as her app of choice because it doesn’t cost anything extra to change location.
“‘But how do I find an Olympian?’ you ask,” she said. “It’s simple: Olympians are kinda like vegans. You don’t have to ask, they will tell you.”
She encouraged eager viewers to look for “signs” of an Olympic athlete, like them playing sports or an obvious descriptor, like answering a prompt with “PARIS!!! OLYMPICS 2024 HERE I COME.”
“To match with an athlete, you gotta train like an athlete — by doing your research,” she continued, advising people to search where the Olympic Village is located in Paris. Hint: It’s approximately five miles north of the city center.
When it comes to swiping, Sofia cautioned that it takes time and patience, but eventually, the algorithm will supposedly learn you’re only looking for athletes.
“And if all goes well, flights to Paris are really cheap right now,” she said. “For only $300, you can be with your match and see their cardboard bed in person.”
