This week, the U.S. women's football team celebrated their FIFA World Cup 2019 trophy aboard the 66-metre Delta Marine superyacht Invictus owned by U.S. billionaire and real estate magnate Rick Caruso, reports Forbes.

The women won the cup on Sunday, July 7, defeating the Netherlands 2-0. Two days later, members of the team including Crystal Dunn, Ali Krieger and co-captain Alex Morgan posted Instagram stories from the yacht showcasing their cruise past the Statue of Liberty.

According to Forbes, the visit was confirmed by Caruso’s representative, explaining that the owner of Invictus is a football fan, inviting the team onboard to demonstrate his support for equal pay to the male counterparts, which was the team’s long-time issue.

Rick Caruso’s net worth estimated at $4 billion by Forbes, comes from a net of open-air shopping centres he developed around Los Angeles. His best-known property Grove, receives nearly 20 million visitors a year, overdoing the Great Wall of China or Disneyland.
