Driver Finds Swimmer In Dating Pool

(From The USA Today -- By Chris Jenkins)

Move over NOMAR GARCIAPARRA and MIA HAMM, because there's new celebrity couple in the sports world -- CARL EDWARDS and swimmer AMANDA BEARD.

Edwards, recently named one of PEOPLE's 50 HOTTEST BACHELORS, met Beard through a mutual friend. She has accompanied him to several recent races.

Beard, winner of four Olympic medals, including a GOLD in the 400-meter medley relay in ATLANTA in 1996, also has a modeling career.

Edwards says he might get recognized more often when the two are at the racetrack, but she does almost everywhere else. "She's definitely more famous than I am," he says.
