USWNT roster: Here are the 23 U.S. players heading to the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand

The USWNT roster is out, and as expected, it’s filled with stars.

There are plenty of names you saw in the last Women’s World Cup back in 2019, including star forwards Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan, so head coach Vlatko Andonovski will have lots of talent to choose from as the United States team gets set to defend its title in Australia and New Zealand.

If you’re wondering where Becky Sauerbrunn is? Sadly, the captain will miss the World Cup with a foot injury.

Here’s a breakdown of the full roster by position after it was announced on Wednesday, going from goalkeepers to the forwards.
