• 3 MINUTE READ
The squads for the 2025 United Cup have been revealed, with a six-strong British team gearing up to challenge for the title from 27 December–5 January in Sydney and Perth, Australia.
2025 will mark the third edition of the mixed team event and will see one of the strongest entry lists in the tournament’s history so far.
The top five WTA ranking and the top five ATP ranking nations automatically qualify for the competition. The remaining eight countries qualify based on the combined ranking of the highest-ranked men’s and women’s players from the same country.
16 teams have already been announced, with the final two nations being determined at the end of November.
Great Britain will enter the event as sixth seeds and boast a strong team that includes three British No.1s in the singles and doubles games and a standout star of the British grass court season.

This year’s tournament saw Great Britain exit in the Group Stages after finishing Group C in third place. The Brits had started promisingly after kick-starting their campaign with a 2-1 win over Australia but fell short against 2023 winners USA in the deciding doubles rubber.
The draw for the 2025 United Cup will take place on Monday 21 October.
Teams will be split into six groups of three nations. Group Stages of the tournament are played in a round-robin format, with each tie consisting of one men’s singles, one women’s singles and one mixed doubles match.
This year’s competition is set to attract one of the most impressive fields to date, with seven of the world’s top 10 women and six of the top 12 men all committing to compete for their nations down under.
Amongst the list of WTA stars set to compete are world No.1 Iga Swiatek, 2023 US Open champion Coco Gauff, this year's Roland Garros and Wimbledon runner-up Jasmine Paolini and Paris Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen.
Meanwhile, on the ATP side, world No.3 Alexander Zverev will look to spearhead Germany to back-to-back United Cup titles, home favourite Alex de Minaur will once again join the Australian team, and US Open runner-up Taylor Fritz joins a rock-solid USA squad.
