How could a husband and wife render fans with the best ‘couple goals’ and also reach grand milestones in their respective sporting careers? The USWNT striker Mallory Swanson and her husband, Dansby Swanson, might be the perfect power couple to answer this one. Mallory is Team USA’s top goal scorer in the Olympics. Without her goal in the final, the USWNT might not have secured the gold medal in Paris. On the same night as the Olympic finale, the Chicago Cubs shortstop Dansby claimed an individual milestone during the Cubs’ recent domestic win over the White Sox.

It seems there is no better multi-tasking expert than Dansby Swanson. He has been religiously following Mallory and Team USA’s games in the Olympics, taking immense pride in his wife’s feats. All this while, he had to do his best for the Cubs as well. When Mallory Swanson clinched her first and the USWNT’s fifth Olympic gold, Dansby Swanson registered his 1,000th career hit during the Cubs-White Sox game on Saturday. Instead of flexing this milestone, the MLB star wrote an emotional note, praising Mallory for powering the USWNT’s Olympic win.

Now that the Olympic celebrations are done, Mallory Swanson has nodded back to Dansby, celebrating his 1,000th career hit. The USWNT star took to Instagram stories and shared the Cubs’ post about Dansby Swanson’s 1,000th career hit. “1000 career hits. Proud of you always,” Mallory Swanson wrote in her story.

Elsewhere, Dansby Swanson shared a picture of his wife posing with the Olympic gold medal on his story. Well, that’s perhaps the smallest of Dansby’s sweet features to his beau and the Olympic gold medalist. His support for Mallory is so profound that Dansby once even admitted breaking down to tears seeing his wife excel at the Summer Games.

How Dansby acted as Mallory Swanson’s rock throughout the Olympic tournament

Mallory Swanson wrote a phoenix’s tale at the Paris Olympics. She made coach Emma Hayes’ Olympic squad after missing out on a lot of action due to a knee injury. Fresh off this injury, Swanson lit up Team USA’s group campaign with three goals and added a fourth in the final. The comeback was so powerful that it left Dansby Swanson immensely overwhelmed at home.

“The amount of times she’s pretty much made me cry over the last two weeks watching her is pretty ridiculous. Just so proud of her journey,” said the Cubs shortstop before the USWNT’s gold medal game.

Thereafter, when Swanson and Co. kissed the Olympic gold medal, the MLB star took to Instagram and said his wife was ‘a gift from above.’ He also praised her for bringing home an Olympic gold during her 100th match with the USWNT. So, the Swanson household saw an Olympic gold, a 100th cap, and a 1,000th career hit on the same night between the power couple!

Indeed, the Chicago-based duo is rendering fans with the best of ‘couple goals’ anybody could ask for.
