New York, NY (February 11, 2010) - Even though Ty Murray’s stint on Dancing with the Stars ended almost one year ago, his dancing skills are still in the spotlight. The Winter 2010 Swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated, on stands now, features the “King Of Cowboys” in a five page photo spread.
Murray, who made it 10 weeks on last season’s Dancing with the Stars with professional dance partner Chelsie Hightower, can be seen in the newest issue of Sports Illustrated, showing off their dance moves. The feature also includes photos of fellow Dancing athletes NFL star Lawrence Taylor and his dance partner Edyta Sliwinska, UFC fighter Chuck Liddell with his partner Anna Trebunskaya, and track legend Maurice Green alongside his partner Cheryl Burke.
“I love being included alongside mainstream sports and athletes,” said Murray about being in the Sports Illustrated, “especially next to legendary track, NFL and UFC athletes. It shows the growth of our sport and the loyalty of our fans. It doesn’t hurt that Chelsie is in a bikini either.”
The Winter 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue is on newsstands now. Fans can also visit http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010_swimsuit/dwts/chelsie-hightower/ for outtakes, video and extra photos not included in the magazine.
