Alex Morgan Becomes Investor in San Diego Wave FC

Alex Morgan, a two-time World Cup winner and Olympic champion, has become a minority investor in San Diego Wave FC less than a year after retiring from professional soccer with the club. Morgan, who helped launch the Wave as one of its first signings, played a pivotal role in the team's early achievements, including winning the NWSL Golden Boot in 2022 and leading them to the 2023 Shield. Her investment underscores her commitment to advancing women's sports and gender equity, as she continues to support ventures like TOGETHXR and invest in the Unrivaled women's basketball league. The Wave's controlling owners, the Leichtman-Levine family, welcomed her involvement as a strong endorsement of the club's mission. Morgan stated her goal is for the club to serve as a model for women's sports and be a core part of the San Diego community. Her transition from player to owner highlights her broader legacy of leadership and advocacy in women's soccer.
