There's a few out male gymnasts, divers and figure skaters, but for the most part it applies to most male sports.
Women's sport is interesting. Football and basketball have any number of out lesbians, but in other sports you don't see it. Tennis being the obvious one, where it's acknowledged that there are a number of lesbians (seem to remember someone saying there were at least 4 in the top 50? May have that wrong), but none are actually out (Sam Stosur may as well be, but she's never actually said she's gay, I don't think).
