Rose Lavelle

In a Women's World Cup that was filled with jaw-dropping moments, Rose Lavelle's virtuoso, take-on-the-whole-opposing-defence goal in the Final was still enough to make you stop and stare. It capped off a tournament in which Rose managed to stand out on a team full of standouts, even taking home the Bronze Ball as the tournament's third-best player. She's peaking at the right time, because USWNT have a bone to pick at the 2020 Olympics; in 2016, the team went home medal-less for the first time since the sport's Olympic debut in 1996. Fresh faces like Rose, Samantha Mewis, and Lindsey Horan are going to be a big factor as the team looks to reclaim gold.
