Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on July 30, 1981)

Happy Birthday, Hope Solo! May your day be filled with fewer dives and more cake slices. You've guarded the net like a superhero, making saves that left opponents scratching their heads and fans cheering wildly. Your legendary performance in the 2015 World Cup—where you kept five clean sheets—still has us wondering if you're secretly part ninja.

From Olympic gold medals to World Cup glory, you've shown us all what it means to defend with style and grace (and occasionally some fierce attitude). Here's hoping your birthday is as epic as your penalty shootout saves—and may no one dare challenge you for the last slice of cake!
