For the second year in a row Kansas City Current forward Temwa Chawinga has won the NWSL Golden Boot award—by being the league's highest goalscorer during the regular season—and will take home the $5,000 bonus that goes along with it. 

She finished with 15 goals and 3 assists across her 23 regular season appearances. Chawinga outscored her closest Golden Boot contender, Gotham's Esther, by two goals and two assists. Joining Sam Kerr, Chawinga becomes the second player in league history to win the award multiple times. Kerr won it three consecutive seasons from 2017-2019.

The 2026 season will be the final season under the old monetary award values and starting in 2027 the Golden Boot winners will be taking home $10,000.
