World's Strongest Woman (later known as Strongwoman World Championships, World's Strongest Lady and United Strongmen Women's World Championships) is an annual strongwoman contest, and considered the pinnacle for female competitors and recognized as the world championships, and was held during the same time and same location as WSM from 2001 to 2003.[1]
After the withdrawal of sponsors TWI and BBC, the International Federation of Strength Athletes replaced it with the Strongwoman World Championships from 2005 to 2008. The contest returned as the World's Strongest Lady in 2011,[2] and from 2012 as the United Strongmen Women's World Championships,[3] before reverting back to its original name in 2016.
Since 2019, the competition was held in Daytona Beach, United States. The 2023 competition was held in Charleston, West Virginia and the 2024 edition in Madison, Wisconsin.
