adidas Golden Boot Award

USA's Megan Rapinoe finished as the leading goalscorer at the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup™ to win the adidas Golden Boot. Alex Morgan, from the USA, and Ellen White, from England, finished second and third respectively.

If two or more players are tied on goals, the winner is determined by total assists. If assists cannot split them, the players who played the least minutes will emerge with the prize.

  • 1991: Michelle AKERS (USA)
