Soccer pro Abby Dahlkemper had a big year in 2019. The 30-year-old made her SI Swimsuit debut with photographer Ben Watts in St. Lucia before helping the U.S. women’s national team win its fourth World Cup championship. The defender logged the most minutes of any U.S. player during the tournament.
She was beyond excited to step out of her San Diego Wave FC kit and into a series of fun, sporty swimsuits for her magazine feature.
“I was kind of in disbelief because Sports Illustrated is such an iconic magazine to be a part of,” she said while on location. “I was just shocked … and honored and I was really excited about the opportunity to have people get to know me off the field and not in soccer clothes.”
Below are seven of our favorite photos from Dahlkemper’s 2019 photo shoot.
