Spain is the sixth country that has sometimes won the tournament, behind the United States, Australia, France, Britain and Sweden, although it should be noted that the number unobtainable U.S. and Australia (32 and 28, respectively) is due in large part to the champion of the previous edition only played the tournament final at home next and, thus encouraging authentic eras of domination by the countries.
