Reading the article it seems less like the egg is making a choice, and more like the egg is more attractive to some sperm than others and that causes them to swim faster and in a straighter line to it.

It’s less like choosing who to swipe on tinder and more like your “type” it seems. The egg is selecting but it’s doing it ahead of time.
