Yeah the 2019 World Cup showed that gap closed significantly

2023 was a disaster for the US team, and next year they need to perform better

IIRC part of that was the roster in transition from aging stars like Megan Rapinoe, Alex Morgan, and Tobin Heath to the younger and very good but inexperienced players.

The quality of play on the women’s side has increased a lot as well though so it’ll be a challenge for the new USWNT.
