Basketball: Japan Qualifies For Women's World Cup For 5th Straight Time

  • Category:Other
Japan's national team secured qualification for the Women's Basketball World Cup in Germany for the fifth straight tournament with an 83-39 win over Argentina on Tuesday.

At a qualifying tournament in Istanbul, Japan finished fourth in the six-team pool with a 2-3 record but advanced as Australia, which had already secured a berth by winning the Women's Continental Cup, did not count toward qualification.

There are four six-team qualifying tournaments in China, France, Puerto Rico and Turkey, from which 16 teams advance to the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup in September.
