Let's celebrate some of the amazing women who are making a splash:

  • Surfing: Surfer greats like Bethany Hamilton and Carissa Moore inspire with their talent and perseverance.

  • Swimming: Katie Ledecky and Simone Manuel dominate the pool, shattering records and showing the power of dedication.
