DAYTONA, Fla. — Kelley O’Hara of Utah Royals FC hopes a recent trip to Florida will help the U.S. team see victory in the FIFA Women’s World Cup in France later this year.
O’Hara, a midfielder/defender for Royals FC, told FOX Sports she went to the Daytona 500 four years ago, and Team USA went on to win the World Cup later that year.
“Well, I came in 2015—it was my first Daytona 500—and I just loved the energy, the vibe, the excitement. Feeling the cars go by is incredible to see and feel live, and we won the World Cup in 2015, so I decided 2019 I gotta come back, gotta win this summer,” O’Hara told FOX Sports.
The month-long FIFA Women’s World Cup begins June 7. Watch FOX 13 for complete coverage.
