Danica Patrick
The most successful female American open-wheel racer is none other than Danica Patrick. She is a machine! The former professional racecar driver took the world by storm, only to retire in 2018. It is very impressive to hear that she is the only woman to ever win an IndyCar Series race. She did this when she emerged victorious in the Indy Japan 300 in 2008. The famous athlete has even become a pop culture sensation thanks to her looks and talent. She has done both TV and film work in the past. Not only that, but she also modeled for Sports Illustrated, ESPN: The Magazine, TV Guide, and FHM.
Kerri Walsh
Here is a powerhouse of a pro beach volleyball player. Kerri Walsh blew her fans away over the course of her career. A three-time Olympic gold medalist, she also has a bronze medal under her belt. Can you believe that she had been five weeks into her pregnancy when she competed in the London Olympics in 2012? She even brought home a gold medal that year! She is definitely easy on the eyes, so it is not that shocking to hear that she has done modeling and TV work in the past. In fact, you might have seen her in the ESPN: The Magazine “Body Issue.” It shows her before and after she gave birth to her third kid.
