The FIFA Men's World Cup (often called the Football World Cup or simply the World Cup) is the most important competition in international football (soccer), and the world's most representative team sport event.
Organised by FIFA, the sport's governing body, the first Women's World Cup tournament was held in 1991, 61 years after the Men's and was the idea of a FIFA official during the 1986 Men's World Cup in Mexico.
The 1999 and 2003 Women's World Cups were both celebrated in the United States; in 2003 China was supposed to host it but it was moved because of SARS.
