Twitter Names the Top Female Athletes of 2019

2019 was a great year for female athletes. From the U.S. Women's Soccer team winning the World Cup to the women headlining Wrestlemania 35, it was a wild ride for the female athletes and it will only get better in 2020. But before we can go forward, we have to look back at who were the top athletes this year. Twitter recently named the top female athletes of 2019 and this was determined by the number of Twitter users talking about each athlete from January to November.

Of the female athletes who made the list, three play tennis, three are soccer stars, two are gymnasts, and two are WWE Superstars. Of the three soccer players who made the cut, two play on the USWNT. That is not the case with Twitter's top male athletes as the soccer players who made the list are from outside the U.S. Also, no male WWE Superstars made the list while the two women who made their list stole the show at Wrestlemania 35.

Here's a look at how Twitter ranked the top female athletes.
