Why USWNT captain Becky Sauerbrunn isn’t on the 2023 World Cup roster

Becky Sauerbrunn USWNT World Cup the 2023

There’s one very notable name missing from the USWNT roster for the 2023 World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, which was announced on Wednesday.

It’s Becky Sauerbrunn, the captain who was set to fill that role this year. If you’re here, you may be wondering: Why would she be left off?

The answer is a heartbreaking one: She announced earlier this week that she would miss the 2023 World Cup due to a foot injury.

“Heartbroken isn’t even the half of it,” she wrote in a post that you can read below. “But that’s sports for you and that’s life, really.”
