SEATTLE - Just months after making public their intentions to host the next Women's World Cup, the United States and Mexico have officially pulled from the bidding process in aims to focus on hosting the 2031 tournament instead.
According to a joint statement released by both soccer federations, one of the reasons why they pulled from the bidding process was the need for additional time to properly prepare for a tournament of such magnitude. The statement also pointed out that they will focus on developing a "more equitable bid" for the 2031 tournament.
