Jennie Finch — Softball
Praised by Time Magazine as the foremost softball icon, Jennie Finch embarked on her sporting journey at the tender age of five. She demonstrated her exceptional pitching prowess for the Arizona Wildcats, the USA national softball team — leading them to a gold and silver medal in the 2004 and 2008 Olympics respectively — and the Chicago Bandits.
Choosing to shift her focus towards familial commitments, Finch stepped back from the game in 2010. But her ardor for the sport remained undiminished. In August 2011, she discovered another platform to contribute to the sport she cherished, becoming a color commentator for Nation Pro Fastpitch and college softball matches on ESPN.
Caroline Wozniacki — Tennis
Caroline Wozniacki, the first Scandinavian woman to attain the pinnacle of tennis rankings, marked her debut on the court at the age of seven. From her initiation onto the ITF Junior Circuit in October 2003, at a tender age of 13, it was clear that Wozniacki was destined for glory.
A 16-year spellbinding journey saw her scale the apex of the sport, seizing the No.1 spot in singles, becoming the 20th in the Open Era. In a crucial announcement in December 2019, Wozniacki conveyed her plan to retire from professional tennis post her stint at the 2020 Australian Open, which occurred a month later.
