Following a weeklong photoshoot at the Jersey shore, various 2021 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit models joined former professional athletes Andre Dawson, formerly of the Montreal Expos, and former football players Keith Byars, of the Philadelphia Eagles and Wayne Chrebet, of the New York Jets, at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Charity Blackjack Tournament at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City on Friday, May 7.

The big winner was model, and last year’s cover girl Camille Kostek, who won $10,000 and a Hard Rockcelebrity signed guitar. She donated her winnings to her boyfriend’s foundation, Super Bowl champion Ron Gronkowski’s Gronk Nation Youth Foundation.
