In the world of Australian sports, the Matildas and cricket have dominated the Google Search trends of 2023.

It's clear that Sam Kerr and her teammates have left other domestic footy codes in the dust.

The data released by Google proves that Australia truly is a sporting nation.

Six out of the top 10 most searched people were high-profile sports stars.

Sam Kerr takes the crown as the most googled person of the year, and it's no surprise considering her recent engagement and her impressive performance in the FIFA Women's World Cup.

Mary Fowler, Kerr's teammate, wasn't far behind in second place.

She has emerged as the successor to Kerr's legacy and has captured the attention both on and off the pitch with her blossoming romance with Nathan Cleary.
