Alex Morgan: Double FIFA World Cup champion and Olympic gold medallist
Morgan first made headlines at the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, where she scored a goal in the semi-final and also scored and assisted in the final as Team USA lost to Japan in a penalty shootout.
The following year, the California native led her team to gold at the London 2012 Olympic Games. She scored a winning header in injury time at the end of extra time in the semi-final against Canada, before the US won the gold medal match against Japan.
In 2013, Morgan won the inaugural National Women's Soccer League title in North America with club side Portland Thorns FC, and two years later she overcame a knee injury to help Team USA win the FIFA Women's World Cup 2015, to complete her set of global titles, having been part of the team that won the continental CONCACAF W Championship to qualify.
