New research has found that listing certain sports in your dating bio can increase your likelihood of matching with someone by up to two times as much.
The study compiled together by GolfSupport.com found that rugby and dancing were the most attractive sports for women and men respectively.
In the social experiment, a male and female Tinder profile were both created and were designed to attract someone from the opposite sex.
Each bio was updated several times throughout the experiment so that it mentioned they played a certain sport for a limited amount of time.
