All fans of the maximus that is gluteus, listen up -- one of the best butts in the world is about to pick the best butt in sports.

We got Jen Selter, the Instagram model that has turned her butt into big business (11 million Instagram followers) and asked her to weigh in on pro athlete ass.

Her choice was one of the usual suspects ... and definitely a Hall of Fame rear ... but things got really interesting when we asked who had the better rumpasauras outta Tom Brady & LeBron James.

We're sure you guys care about all that ... but in case you don't, there's a gallery of Jen below. You're welcome.

A lot of people SAY they wanna be like Conor McGregor -- not everyone can put their money where their mouths are.

Joanna Jedrzejczyk is pretty damn close.

The UFC fighter is one of the most dominant athletes (male or female) in all of MMA at the moment ... and says she wants to follow Conor and Ronda Rousey in becoming the sport's next icon.

As we previously reported, Joanna is already working with The Rock's agent -- who also happens to represent Ronda.

DJ Quik's straight-up stunned that Tiger Woods' got busted for a DUI ... and seems a little disappointed too.

We broke the news to the rapper at LAX on Monday, and after his jaw almost hits the floor ... he dishes on Tiger's mug shot and offers some possible explanations why he got himself in trouble again. His friend chimes in too.

It's interesting ... DJ Quik's song "Nobody" actually features lyrics about Tiger Woods, so it's clear he's a fan.

Bella Hadid knows how to make a splash ... it just helps when she's got a luxury yacht to jump from.

The supermodel showed off her figure in a thong bikini Monday while relaxing with British Formula One racing driver, Lewis Hamilton, in Monaco. He had no problem showing off his bod either.

Bella's been living the yacht life quite a bit since arriving in Cannes last week.

It's unclear if she's dating Hamilton or they're just hanging out, but as we can see ... Bella likes to jump in with both feet.

5/30 -- Contrary to what law enforcement sources told us Monday, according to the police report Tiger did not have alcohol in his system and did not refuse a breathalyzer. He also was found stopped on the side of the road and not weaving.

And, according to the police report, Tiger was cooperative.

5:00 PM PT -- Tiger just released a statement ... "I understand the severity of what I did and I take full responsibility for my actions. I want the public to know that alcohol was not involved. What happened was an unexpected reaction to prescribed medications. I didn't realize the mix of medications affected me so strongly."

Woods goes on ... "I would like to apologize with all my heart to my family, friends, and the fans. I expect more from myself, too. I will do everything in my power to ensure this never happens again.

I fully cooperated with law enforcement, and I would like to personally thank the representatives of the Jupiter Police Dept. and the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office for their professionalism."

1:00 PM PT -- We've learned Tiger's girlfriend, Kristin Smith, learned about the arrest while shopping at a Neiman Marcus store in Dallas. Someone called her and, according to several eyewitnesses, "she went crazy" and said "I knew it, I knew it." We're told she began crying, then bought $5k worth of merchandise and left.

10:30 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... cops spotted Woods "driving erratically, all over the road" when they pulled him over. We're told the officer smelled alcohol on Woods' breath and at that point Woods became "arrogant." We're told the officer asked him to blow into a breathalyzer but he refused. In Florida that means automatic arrest and license suspension.

Our sources say Woods' people have been calling the police all morning asking if the cop had a body cam.

9:45 AM PT -- We're told Woods was driving a 2015 Mercedes. Cops called a tow yard to store the vehicle but then cancelled the call. Someone involved tells us a person in Woods' camp retrieved the vehicle.

9:40 AM PT -- Unclear if it's related, but Tiger had back surgery last month. As we reported, cops have not specified whether the DUI was for drugs, alcohol or both.

Tiger Woods has been arrested on DUI charges in Jupiter, Florida.

The golfer was stopped by cops early Monday morning for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. He was taken in around 3 AM and released from Palm Beach County Jail at 10:50 AM.

You'll recall ... when Tiger and then wife Elin Nordegren got into their blowout fight back in 2009, he hit a tree while allegedly driving under the influence of Ambien. He was not charged with DUI at the time.

X-Pac says he may have to go back to jail ... but this time around, he's ready for it.

Get the ice ready, 'cause the Lakers' new strength and conditioning director, Gunnar Peterson, says he ain't playing around when it comes to getting the squad in championship shape.

Peterson -- who trained the Kardashians, Magic Johnson and some of the biggest stars in the world -- tells TMZ Sports he plans on making an immediate impact with his customized gym plan.

"The new Lakers will be very different from what people are expecting."

He also has BIG hopes for Lakers star Brandon Ingram -- saying he's followed BG's career from Duke and claims the guy is a "special athlete."

"I'm gonna make sure he upholds the standard that I know he's capable of."

Funny moment with Irish superstar Colin Farrell ... who apparently hasn't done his Irish duty of checking in on Conor McGregor's baby yet.

Farrell jokes that he "should" check up on Ireland's most famous baby -- and then cracks on our photog for not keeping up with Irish politics.

The best part's when Colin tries to zing our Australian camera guy, Charlie, for being an uneducated American.

As for Conor Jr. ... he's chillin'.

Pat Riley wishes nothing but the best for LeBron James in his 7th straight NBA Finals appearance ... but he doesn't want us to forget Magic Johnson's number.

We got Pat Saturday in Malibu, where we asked if he was wishing LeBron luck for the NBA Finals.

Even though Golden State Warriors co-owner Peter Guber doesn't want him to answer ... Pat -- who LeBron left in Miami to rejoin the Cavs -- breaks it down with half shade and half well-wishing.

Post Malone has an idea of which NBA stars could hop on a "White Iverson" remix ... but Kobe Bryant ain't one of 'em.

We got Post Saturday night outside of Catch, and asked how hanging out with the inspiration behind his hit record went this weekend. Post says Allen Iverson's already thinking remix.

Sounds like A.I. knows who he'd like to see rap on it ... but Post has his own thoughts -- he's thinking an NBA rapper can jump on, seeing how some of them can spit a little.

He lists off a few guys -- but the takeaway here is Post's opinion of Kobe's MC skills ... hint, it ain't good.

Sorry, Mamba.

Two drivers in the Indy 500 were lucky to walk away -- let alone be alive -- after a super gnarly crash that flipped one vehicle over multiple times.

Racers Scott Dixon and Jay Howard collided into one another Sunday during the Indy 500 race in Indianapolis ... which sent Scott's car flying into the side rails and tore it to pieces.

After getting checked out by docs onsite ... both drivers were surprisingly left unscathed.

Scott was also in good spirits afterward in what could have been a deadly moment.

Jason Momoa gave one hell of a sendoff to his UFC pal Mark Hunt by performing a haka dance ... shirts off, tongues out and all.

We're told Mark and Jason struck up a friendship over the last 6 weeks while they were both in Australia -- Mark training for his fight against Derrick Lewis, and Jason filming for "Aquaman." They've been working out at the same gym called Heartbreak.

As a good luck gesture for Mark's fight next month in New Zealand, Jason -- as well as cast and crew and some of Hunt's training partners -- performed that country's traditional war dance ... the haka. Jason and Mark are both of Samoan descent ... from where the dance originates.

Jason will be attending Mark's fight.

Anyway, from the looks of these vids ... Mark wasn't expecting the whole shebang. Surprised much?

Akon must've been really excited for the Monaco Grand Prix to start this weekend ... or maybe he just likes spraying champagne in Monte Carlo for the hell of it.

Whatever the case ... Akon was definitely getting his Cristal shower on Saturday night while attending an after-party for fashion designer Philipp Plein, who just had a show in Cannes.

Eyewitnesses tell us the singer was basically spraying the audience all night inside Jimmy's nightclub, where he was also performing. No harm, no foul though ... the crowd was doing the same.

Daniel Cormier upheld a long running wedding tradition by tossing his wife's garter at their wedding reception ... and his pal Luke Rockhold walked away the winner.

Daniel got slow and sexy while he removed the garter of his bride, Salina, during Saturday's party.

It hit the floor, but an anxious Luke scooped it up and waived the prize.

As we reported ... Dana White wasn't invited to the wedding, but we're told there's no beef between the 2. Here's hoping his boss still sent a gift.

Congrats!

Lamar Odom was removed from a strip club in the San Fernando Valley early Sunday AM, after he cut in line to enter ... this according to an eyewitness who shot the video.

Lamar and 2 women showed up at around 3:30 AM to Red Tie Gentleman's Club in Van Nuys, and the eyewitness says Lamar wasn't keen on waiting in the line ... so he and the woman side skirted the queue. The eyewitness says security corralled them and escorted them out.

If Floyd Mayweather doesn't get off his butt and sign the paperwork to fight Conor McGregor, Manny Pacquiao WILL ... so says Manny's promoter, Bob Arum.

Conor has been snuffing Floyd in the media for days now ... goading him to sign his part of the deal to make their potentially half a billion dollar fight a reality.

When we talked to Arum out at Craig's in L.A. he told us if Floyd is too busy feinting at the fight, Manny is actually ready to PUNCH, telling our guy after Pac Man's July 1 fight is done, they're totally game.

BTW ... Conor is looking for around $100 mil for the fight, for those prices we here at TMZ Sports would like to officially throw our hats into the ring as well.

We have a full staff, pick someone McGregor.
