Fils, Tsitsipas, Auger-Aliassime, Paolini, or Vekic: Hopman Cup Teams Revealed
A prestigious mixed exhibition played for 31 years in Perth, Australia, the Hopman Cup disappeared in 2019 in favor of the ATP Cup (now the United Cup) before being revived in 2023 with an edition held in Nice.
After a break due to the organization of the Paris Olympics last year, the Hopman Cup will be played on hard courts this season in Italy, specifically in Bari. From July 16 to 20, right after Wimbledon, six nations, each represented by two players, will compete for the title.
In Group A, Greece will be led by its top-ranked player Stefanos Tsitsipas and world No. 202 Despina Papamichail. They will face Spain’s Roberto Bautista-Agut and Marina Bassols Ribera, as well as Canada’s Félix Auger-Aliassime and Bianca Andreescu.
In Group B, France will be represented by Arthur Fils and Chloé Paquet. The French team will take on the defending champions, Croatia, which will feature Donna Vekic and Duje Ajdukovic. Finally, the host country, Italy, will naturally be one of the top contenders with Jasmine Paolini and Flavio Cobolli in their lineup.
