Alex Morgan
2019 World Cup winner and co-top scorer. The face of the USWNT's modern era. Fast, clinical, and impossible to stop in full flight.

2023 World Cup winner and Golden Ball. Back-to-back Ballon d'Or (2023, 2024). The best women's player on the planet right now. Barcelona and Spain — she runs both.
