2003 FIFA Women's World Cup

==Qualfied countries==
Beginning in 2003, the "Big Four" (technically five) no longer receive automatic entry into the main draw. FIFA officials declared the rule to be unfair and that "other countries deserve a chance", meaning that every country, excluding the host nation and defending champion, must qualify for the main draw through a round-robin group stage.
