There were three women featured as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover models in 2019.

USWNT star Alex Morgan was one of them, along with Camille Kostek and Tyra Banks. The 2019 edition marked Morgan’s third SI Swim appearance (2012, 2014) and her first time on the cover.

A cover performance is a great honor for any model or athlete, and Morgan was clearly excited to be chosen for the spot.

In addition to appearing on the cover, Morgan also participated in a full shoot in St Lucia.

You can check out some of the highlights of that below.

Morgan, along with Megan Rapinoe and Abby Dahlkemper, is one of the many stars of women’s soccer in the United States featured in the SI Swim issue.
