Canada awarded 2015 Women's World Cup
Canada was awarded the rights to host the Women's World Cup in 2015. There was no doubt that Canada would win it; the only other bid was submitted by Zimbabwe which was barely competitive. Two days before the vote, Zimbabwe withdrew to leave Canada as the only bid in the competition.
