ORLANDO – Four years ago, when the last World Cup concluded, America’s newest soccer home was a mostly vacant plot of land with an old church.
Four years ago, when the last World Cup concluded, America’s newest soccer mecca didn’t even have an MLS team.
Four years ago, when the last World Cup concluded, America’s newest soccer superstar had just turned 15 years old.
For so many years, there’s been a longing for “grassroots” growth of soccer in the United States. When would new markets emerge? When would a prodigy captivate casual fans? Here on Friday, in a state where soccer has often failed to catch on, the grass roots were in full bloom.
“From the second we walked in,” said goalkeeper Tim Howard, “people were in their seats. So we knew it would be a good day.”

Forbes: Tampa Bay home to seven billionaires
Monday, March 20, 2017 4:35pm
Locally, Tampa Bay is home to seven of the list's billionaires, up from four last year:
• Leading the all-male group is Tampa-based Edward DeBartolo Jr. with a net worth of $2.9 billion. The founder and CEO of DeBartolo Holdings previously owned the San Francisco 49ers. He places 693rd on the international list.
• Clearwater's Robert Duggan has the second highest net worth in the area at $2.6 billion. Most of his fortune comes from the biotech industry. AbbVie bought his firm Pharmacyclics in 2015 for $21 billion, and owns just over a 15 percent stake in Pulse Biosciences. He is No. 782 overall.
• Kenneth Feld ranks just below Duggan locally with a net worth of $2.5 billion. As the CEO of Feld Entertainment, Feld oversees an enterprise that includes Monster Jam, Disney on Ice and Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. He places 814th on the list.
• New to the list this year is Clearwater's Todd Christopher with a net worth of $2.1 billion. He sold his hair product company, Vogue International, to Johnson & Johnson in 2016 for $3.3 billion. He ranks at No. 973.
• St. Petersburg's Ronald Wanek, the owner of Ashley Furniture, returns to the list this year with a net worth of $2 billion. Wanek is No. 1,030.
• Also in St. Petersburg is Thomas James, Raymond James Financial's chairman emeritus and a major local civic activist. His net worth is $1.1 billion, placing him 1,795th on the list.

Forbes: Eight of the world’s billionaires call Tampa Bay home
Mar 20, 2017, 11:39am Updated Mar 20, 2017, 14:15pm
Shopping center magnate Edward DeBartolo Jr. continues to top the list of Tampa Bay’s wealthiest people.
DeBartolo, with a net worth of $2.9 billion as of March 19, ranked No. 693 on Forbes’ new list of the world’s billionaires. He has the highest rank on the list of the eight billionaires who live in the Tampa Bay area.
DeBartolo, a former owner of the San Francisco 49ers, is founder and CEO of DeBartolo Holdings in Tampa. He also owns shares in Simon Property Group (NYSE: SPG), which acquired DeBartolo Realty for $1.5 billion in stock in 1996.
Here are the other seven Tampa Bay residents on the Forbes list of billionaires:
Robert Duggan, No. 782, with a net worth of $2.6 billion. Duggan, with an address in Clearwater, sold his biotech firm Pharmacyclics to AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) in 2015 for $21 billion, receiving a pretax payout of $3.5 billion in cash and stock. Since then, he’s sold most of his shares and invested in tech and health care companies, Forbes said. Over the last several months, he’s acquired a 15.4 percent stake in Pulse Biosciences Inc. (NASDAQ: PLSE), a California medical technology company.
Kenneth Feld and family, No. 814, net worth $2.5 billion. Feld, who lives in Tampa, is chairman and CEO of Feld Entertainment, the parent company of Disney on Ice, Monster Jam and Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. The circus is shutting down in May 2017, due in part to falling ticket sales.
Todd Christopher, No. 973, has a net worth of $2.1 billion after selling Vogue International, the Clearwater hair products company he founded, to Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) for $3.3 billion. Christopher owned 51 percent of the company and private equity firm Carlyle Group had a 49 percent stake.
Ronald Wanek, the owner of Ashley Furniture, is No. 1,030, with a net worth of $2 billion. He lives in St. Petersburg. Wanek also founded Third Lake Capital in Tampa, an investment vehicle that bought restaurant chain WingHouse in 2014.
Carol Jenkins Barnett, No. 1,234 with a net worth of $1.7 billion. She is the daughter of the founder of Publix Super Markets Inc. in Lakeland, and spent 33 years on the Publix board, before stepping down in June 2016 after being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s disease.
Thomas James, chairman emeritus of Raymond James Financial Inc. (NYSE: RJF), the St. Petersburg financial services firm founded by his father that under Tom James’ leadership grew into a national powerhouse. James is No. 1,795 on the Forbes’ list with a net worth of $1.1 billion.
Howard Jenkins, No. 1,940, with a net worth of $1 billion. He is Carol Jenkins Barnett’s brother and a former chairman of the Publix board of directors. He continues to serve on the Publix board, and controls 2.95 percent of Publix’ stock, according to the company’s most recent proxy.
The Forbes list also includes four people who live in Naples:
Reinhold Schmieding, founder and president of Arthrex, a medical device firm, No. 385 with a net worth of $4.4 billion.
Tom Golisano, No. 660 with a net worth of $3 billion. He founded the payroll firm Paychex (NASDAQ: PAYX) and is a former owner of the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres. He’s married to International Tennis Hall-of-Famer Monica Seles.
Catherine Lozick, majority owner of Swagelok, a valve manufacturer started by her father. She’s No. 1,161 with a net worth of $1.8 billion.
William Stone, No. 1,795 with a net worth of $1.1 billion. Stone is the largest individual shareholder of SS&C Technologies Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SSNC), a software company he started.
