Fox News
This year’s Rookie group includes Yumi Nu, Nyma Tang, Kathy Jacobs, Tanaye White, Leyna Bloom, Maggie Rawlins and Natalie Mariduena.
"We are excited to announce Katrina Scott as this year’s Rookie of the Year and celebrate what an incredible role model she is!" SI Swim’s editor-in-chief MJ Day told Fox News on Friday in a statement. "Katrina’s story is extremely inspiring, as a self-made entrepreneur, she has built a global fitness brand, is a New York Times bestselling and on top of that is a mother, wife and now SI Swimsuit model."
"Her introduction to Swimsuit was a more non-traditional one - starting off by creating workout videos for our followers during the pandemic," Day shared. "The partnership quickly evolved and we recognized what an impact Katrina had on our fans. Her willingness to use her knowledge, power and strength to open up about the wins and losses in her professional and personal life to drive awareness for others, perfectly aligns with our work towards creating a safe space for self-expression."
