5 Stunning Responsive Athlete Websites

Responsive web design is the future. I wondered last night how many top athletes have gone to responsive websites for their personal brands. I started looking at the 2013 Forbes top paid athletes list to search for some good examples. As logical as I thought it would be that a correlation of financial success to top technology would exist, I discovered that was not the case.

Many of the top paid athletes as you would assume have very nice websites. Serena Williams, Carmelo Anthony and Kobe Bryant all have very attractive and highly functional websites. I found it to be a challenge however, to find great examples of responsive athlete websites.

Here are 5 that I found outstanding:

1. Usain Bolt - http://usainbolt.com

The fastest man on Earth might also have the most amazing athlete website design.

2. Rory McIlroy - http://www.rorymcilroy.com

I absolutely love the image scroller on this site, beautiful photography + story = high emotional appeal.

3. Paul Rodriguez - http://prod84.com

PROD has big things happening in his career at the moment. He announced recently that he would be leaving his long time board sponsor to take more ownership of his brand. Official website, check.

4. Jens Lehmann - http://www.jenslehmann.com/

Jens Lehmann is an accomplished German footballer. His site tells a great story and supports a compelling, multifaceted brand presence.

5. Nyjah Hutson - http://nyjah.com

I was excited to see Nyjah Huston with such a great website. At 18 years old and the highest prize winning skateboarder in history, the story of this brand is young and exciting, just like the man himself.
