Here we’ll take a look at which nations have lifted the Women’s World Cup trophy ahead of this year's edition being held in Australia and New Zealand. The festivities kick off on 20 July and run until 20 August 2023.

What is the record for the Women's World Cup?

The Women's World Cup is undoubtedly one of the major sporting events of 2023! Held in Australia and New Zealand between 20 July to 20 August, the competition will bring together the best teams in the world. Fans will get to see some of the strongest national teams battle it out for the title of world champions, as four nations have done before them since the trophy was created. But who are they? Here is a year-by-year list of the winners of the Women's World Cup, covering all editions since the inaugural tournament in 1991:

  • 1991 - United States (1)
  • 1995 - Norway (1)
  • 1999 - United States (2)
  • 2003 - Germany (1)
  • 2007 - Germany (2)
  • 2011 - Japan (1)
  • 2015 - United States (3)
  • 2019 - United States (4)

In eight iterations of the Women's World Cup, only four nations have won the trophy: the United States, Norway, Germany and Japan. One team stands out from the rest, the USA, who have won 50% of the tournaments. This is a team that will obviously be analysed throughout the 2023 World Cup in our Women's World Cup predictions, as it is the clear favourite again this year.

How many times have England won the Women's World Cup?

Women's World Cup Winner

As you will have gathered from the previous paragraphs, the England women's team has never won the FIFA Women's World Cup. Additionally, the Lionesses have never really had the chance to get their hands on the trophy.

In eight editions of the global competition, the England women have never made the final. Their best finish came in 2015 where they managed to defeat Germany in the third-place playoff to claim bronze. The 2019 edition saw England again make the semi-finals, although this time they would be defeated 2-1 by Sweden and have to settle for fourth-place. With two straight semi-final appearances under their belts and a strong team of talented players, the England women will be eyeing 2023 as the year they finally break through. 

Sarina Wiegman’s players have the opportunity to make history with a strong FIFA world ranking of fourth, as predicted by the bookmakers in their Women's World Cup odds. You can follow the action live on our Women's World Cup live page!
