Swede on the bestseller list

Among iconic running stories and classic golf books, a young Swede is on the New York Times list of best-selling sports books.

A phenomenon. There is probably no other way to describe Rachel "Yoga Girl" Brathen.

The 26-year-old Swede with over 1.6 million followers on Instagram and iconic status in the yoga world.

Her book "Yoga Girl" was released in Sweden in the fall of 2014, in which Brathen shares her yoga skills, life philosophy and home environment in Aruba. The book quickly became popular and has now found its way onto the New York Times list of best-selling sports books for the month of July.

It joins longtime bestsellers like "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougall and Ben Hogan's classic golf book "Five Lessons".

Here is the full list.
