  "summary": "Australian Olympians, including Ariarne Titmus, have criticised an advertisement for a sports betting company featuring actress Sydney Sweeney. The ad shows Sweeney mostly nude, mock-playing various sports.\n\nThe athletes have condemned the advertisement, calling it \"an absolute joke\" and accusing it of setting back women in sport. According to ABC News, dozens of athletes have taken aim at the ad.\n\nSydney Sweeney's advertisement features her in little to no clothing, playing mock sports such as tennis, golf, and baseball, and holding various sports equipment. In the ad, she boasts about punters being able to bet on sports. The criticism was sparked after American gymnast Gracie Kramer responded with an Instagram reel, which was followed by a trend among some female athletes.",
