4x LUGE OLYMPIAN ERIN HAMLIN IS THE MOST DECORATED AMERICAN IN THE HISTORY OF THE SPORT. 2014 BRONZE MEDALIST, and 2x LUGE WORLD CHAMPION, made history at the 2014 Sochi Olympic Games as the FIRST AMERICAN (MALE OR FEMALE) TO WIN AN OLYMPIC MEDAL IN SINGLES LUGE and was the FIRST U.S. WOMAN TO WIN A MEDAL IN ANY LUGE DISCIPLINE AT THE OLYMPIC GAMES. Over her 15-year career Erin has undoubtedly put the sport of luge on the global map for the U.S. and proved that even a girl from a tiny town in Upstate New York in a small sport can do anything if you follow your dreams and never give up- and she’s not done yet! ............ Born in raised in the small but huge-hearted rural town of Remsen, NY, Erin was first introduced to luge at the age of 12 through a USA Luge Slider Search in Syracuse, NY. Erin took a unique chance to try something new and hasn’t looked back since. After being selected to a development team she began training at the Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid, NY. As a member of the Jr National Team from 2003-2005, Erin captured two Jr National Champion titles and a collection of Jr World Cup medals. At the time, she was also a sectional all-star in soccer and track at high school. Erin made the Sr. World Cup Team in 2005 racing her way onto the 2006 Olympic Team in Torino, Italy, where she slid to a 12th place finish at only 19 years old. The following seasons she continued her career full force, posting top results............ On February 6, 2009 Hamlin's luge career slid into full speed as she won the GOLD MEDAL at the 2009 Luge World Championships in Lake Placid, becoming the FIRST U.S. WOMAN TO EVER MEDAL AT THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS. This marked the first time in 99 races that a German woman was not the top finisher. ......... Following the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, where Erin finished as the top American, she won her third consecutive National Championship and continued to top off the following seasons with three more National Championship titles (2008-2012).......... At her third Olympics in Sochi, Russia in 2014, Erin MADE HISTORY winning a Bronze Medal- the first ever medal in singles luge for the U.S. (male or female), also making her the only American woman to ever win any Olympic medal in luge. The reception to Erin’s accomplishments has been widely recognized and she truly came home an American hero, serving as a role model and inspiration so many. Following the Olympics, Erin was honored with “THE BEST OF THE U.S. - BEST FEMALE ATHLETE AWARD,” honoring the MOST INSPIRING ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCES of TEAM USA at the 2014 GAMES......... The 2015-2016 season was a phenomenal one for Erin, earning the top medal count of her career at that time. The undoubted highlight of the season came when Erin led Team USA to a historic 1-2-3 finish with a Gold Medal at the 2015 World Cup in Lake Placid; topping that off with another Gold in the Team Relay later that day..... The 2016-2017 SEASON was even more outstanding, with Erin winning TWO GOLD WORLD CUP MEDALS, and she won her SECOND WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE, in ADDITION to TWO SILVER MEDALS on top of that GOLD MEDAL at the 2017 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS, BREAKING THREE DIFFERENT U.S. RECORDS IN THE PROCESS. In doing so, Erin Hamlin OFFICIALLY BECAME TEAM USA's GREATEST FEMALE LUGE ATHLETE EVER and now holds the title of “MOST DECORATED FEMALE ATHLETE" in the history of USA Luge......... With Erin leading the pack for the women, Team USA has shown their growing dominance in the sport. ERIN COMPETED IN HER FOURTH OLYMPICS at the 2018 WINTER OLYMPIC GAMES IN PYEONGCHANG, SOUTH KOREA, WHERE SHE WAS ALSO NAMED THE TEAM USA FLAG BEARER FOR OLYMPICS OPENING CEREMONIES, WHICH IS A HUGE HONOR .......... There’s no question that Erin continues to make an enormous impact as an athlete and leader both in and out of her sport, and is undoubtedly leaving a legacy as she hangs up her sled after 18 years in the sport..........In November 2018 Erin completed the New York City Marathon..... .Equally important to Erin as her athletic accomplishments, she is dedicated to her involvement in several philanthropic and community initiatives, particularly those that help kids reach their true potential in all aspects of their lives, including in the classroom and maintaining healthy lifestyles.. Loves YOGA, outdoors activities (hiking, biking, horseback riding, skiing, camping) and baking. Pyeongchang 2018 participant; 2018 Olympics Team USA flag bearer Married with new baby (Dec 2020)

Press Release · New York, NY
The world's largest athlete marketing platform reports 277 million views from soccer creators in the last eight weeks, with 1,552 bookable soccer athletes ready for brand activation across 15+ countries. Clients including Walmart and USA Today are already activating ahead of kickoff.
OpenSponsorship, the world's largest athlete marketing platform backed by Serena Williams and David Blitzer, today released proprietary data showing the scale of the creator opportunity around the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which kicks off Thursday, June 11th in North America. With brands including Walmart and USA Today already activating soccer creator campaigns through the platform, OpenSponsorship is positioned as the go-to partner for brands looking to win the biggest sports marketing moment of the decade.
The platform's soccer roster has generated 277 million views in the last eight weeks alone, with 276 viral posts clearing 100,000 views across just 86 athletes. OpenSponsorship has 1,552 publicly listed and bookable soccer athletes across 15+ countries, including 893 in the United States, alongside athletes from the UK, Mexico, Canada, Spain, Brazil, France, Nigeria, and more.
Brands that can't sign elite players can still reach their audienceWith 48 nations competing in the largest World Cup in history, brands face a common challenge: the biggest names are either off limits or out of budget. OpenSponsorship's data shows that mid-tier and creator talent routinely out-reaches their follower counts by 50 to 100x — giving brands access to the same passionate fan audiences at a fraction of the cost of global stars.
“The World Cup is the biggest commercial moment in sports marketing history, and the brands that win it will not be the ones who waited for the tournament to start. Our soccer athletes have already generated 277 million views in the last two months. The audience is engaged, the creators are ready, and the window to activate at the best rates closes when kickoff happens.” — Ishveen Jolly, Founder & CEO, OpenSponsorshipWalmart and USA Today: what World Cup activation actually delivers
OpenSponsorship's recent Walmart Soccer Saturday campaign demonstrates what's possible when brands activate the right soccer creators. The campaign — which featured AA9Skillz, Brittany Wilson, Matty Farias, Sean Garnier, and others — generated the following:
USA Today is also activating soccer creator campaigns through OpenSponsorship ahead of the World Cup, leveraging the platform's roster of 1,552 bookable soccer athletes to reach highly engaged audiences across the US, Canada, and Mexico — the three host nations for the 2026 tournament.
“When creators genuinely love a sport and an event, it shows in the content. The Walmart campaign worked because the athletes were authentic soccer fans first and brand partners second. That authenticity is exactly what drives the kind of engagement numbers brands cannot get from traditional advertising.” — Ishveen Jolly, Founder & CEO, OpenSponsorshipThe World Cup activation window
OpenSponsorship's data shows a clear opportunity curve for World Cup brand activation. Athletes are available now at pre-tournament rates, with demand and pricing expected to rise sharply once the group stage begins June 11th.
Brands that lock in creator partnerships before the tournament begins benefit from lower rates, more authentic content, and deeper athlete relationships that extend beyond the tournament window. OpenSponsorship's white-glove managed service handles sourcing, contracting, content briefing, delivery, and ROI reporting end to end.
