Alex Morgan, who scored a record five goals against Thailand in the World Cup opener last week, was already named the female US football player of the US in 2018.
Hosted by former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick, ESPY ratings were dramatically lower in 2018, while the broadcast reached 3.9 million viewers, compared to 5.3 million in 2017. Comedian Tracy Morgan will organize this year's broadcast on July 10.
& # 39; I hope my uncle Sidney Poitier is there with my biological father Tony Dorsett and my second cousin Herschel Walker, & # 39; Morgan joked in an ESPN press release. & # 39; And Bo Jackson, I want my two dollars back. & # 39;
There are many other nominees for next month's prize fair.
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is for & # 39; best breakthrough athlete & # 39; with Atlanta Hawks rookie Trae Young, Milwaukee Brewers slugger Christian Yelich and the American Open winner Naomi Osaka.
The 2018 MVP Finals, Kevin Durant, is nominated for & # 39; NBA Player of the Year & # 39;
Osaka is also nominated for & # 39; best tennis player & # 39; together with Serena Williams, whom she defeated in Queens last summer to secure her first grand slam title – a competition that is good for the & # 39; best-transmitted & # 39; ESPY price.
After getting married and giving birth in 2017, Williams did not succeed in winning a single title in 2018 for the first time in her professional career. Yet she placed a solo album of 18-6 in the year.
Antetokounmpo is also for & # 39; best NBA player & # 39; along with Houston Rockets guard James Harden, Kevin Durant and Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George.
Durant, who recently tore his Achilles while playing for the Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals, had won the MVP final in each of the last two seasons.
Stewart is in favor of the WNBA award with Phoenix Mercury veteran Diana Taurasi, Washington Mystics center Elena Delle Donne and Candace Parker, star in Los Angeles Sparks.
And after helping the Washington Capitols win their first Stanley Cup in 2018, veteran Alexander Ovechkin is in for & # 39; Best NHL Player & # 39; along with Tampa Bay & # 39; s Nikita Kucherov and Edmonton & # 39 Connor McDavid.
