The FIBA Women's World Cup 2026 is almost upon us as 16 nations battle it out to be crowned champions in Berlin.
In 1953, the inaugural women's tournament took place in Chile, as the USA won its first of many titles.
The format of the competition has changed over the years, but this time it will feature 16 countries again, an increase on the 12 that featured four years ago.
But which nations have dominated the tournament since the 50s? Here, DAZN News looks back at the most successful teams in history.
The USAÂ and Soviet Union dominated the FIBA Women's World Cup until the latter dissolved in 1991, with Russia regarded as the principal successor.
Indeed, the USA have lifted the last four trophies and will be the team to beat again this year.
