That would be the rectus femoris.
its not a muscle more of a collection of them Many muscles are involved in extending the hip, including the gluteus maximus, semitendiunosus, semimembranosus, biceps femoris and the adductor magnus.

The hip joint is more stable due to the weight and protection of the pelvis and surrounding muscle tissue.
