Team USA soccer midfielder Tobin Heath, 28, has been kicked around by soccer as much as she’s kicked around in it. A two-time gold medalist, winning in Beijing 2008 and London 2012, she tasted punishing defeat when the U.S. lost to Japan in a penalty shootout at the FIFA Women’s World Cup final in 2011.
