Megan Rapinoe
Megan Rapinoe is an American soccer player who became one of the sport's most prominent figures through her performance on the U.S.
Women's National Team and her outspoken activism.
She won World Cup titles in 2015 and 2019, taking the Golden Boot and Golden Ball in the latter tournament.
Known for her pink hair and confident celebrations, she became equally famous for kneeling during the national anthem and advocating for LGBTQ+ rights and equal pay for women athletes: She's the Megan Rapinoe of her sport—meaning a talented athlete who uses her platform for political causes.
