Women Are Our Future: The Most Inspiring And Beautiful Athletes Working Today
Hope Solo – Soccer
All soccer fans know that a team needs a great goalkeeper if they stand a chance of winning. Team U.S. did not face this problem during the Olympics, especially since they’ve had Hope Solo between the goalposts for many years.
A legend at both club and international level, Solo had a large part to play in the women’s national team’s current success. She’s helped them win Olympic golds twice, as well as a number of medals at World Cups. Solo had lots of stories to tell in her best-selling (and amusingly titled) autobiography, Solo: A Memoir of Hope.
