Hope Solo

Another native of Washington state to make this list is Hope Solo, a former soccer player. The stunner was the goaltender for the U.S. women’s national soccer team between 2000 and 2016, in which she became a World Cup champion and a two-time Olympic gold medalist. Considering that she is considered one of the top female goalkeepers globally, we think it’s safe to say that Solo is a name that will never be forgotten.

Gina Carano

We might be in love with Gina Carano, in all honesty. Look at her, we mean! In any event, Carano began her career in Muay Thai, where she became the face of women’s MMA, although it was not long before she switched to mixed martial arts. After she retired from competition, Carano decided to keep busy with acting and modeling work. In a list of ‘Top 10 Influential Women’ of 2008, Carano was featured in ESPN: The Magazine and Maxim in fifth place.
