2025 United Cup

2025 ATP and WTA tours begin in Australia.

2025 United Cup, a combined ATP and WTA teams tournament, on Hard Outdoor, Sydney and Perth, Australia, 27 December 2024 - 5 January 2025.

18 countries are qualified to compete as follows:

5 countries qualified based on the ATP ranking of their #1 ranked singles player
5 countries qualified based on the WTA ranking of their #1 ranked singles player
8 countries qualified based on the combined ranking of their #1 ranked ATP and WTA players 

Australia as host nation could have, in exchange, taken a spot reserved for a country qualified under the third criterion.
However this was unnecessary as it qualified in its own right.

Perth and Sydney will each host 3 groups of 3 teams (consisting of up to 3 players from each tour) in a round robin series, and two quarter finals.
Sydney will host the semi finals and final.

The countries competing are as follows (seedings in brackets)

Group A (hosted by Perth)
