Hopman Cup: Canada's Auger-Aliassime and Andreescu join Italy in the final
The last group-stage match of the 2025 Hopman Cup took place this Saturday.
It pitted Canada against Greece in Group A. The Canadians, represented by Félix Auger-Aliassime and Bianca Andreescu, had already defeated Spain in both singles matches yesterday.
The scenario was identical today, with wins over Despina Papamichail (6-1, 6-2) and Stefanos Tsitsipas (7-6, 6-3). Canada thus joins Italy in the final of the event. The host nation had secured its qualification yesterday by defeating France in Group B.
The singles matches will feature Flavio Cobolli against Félix Auger-Aliassime and Lucia Bronzetti against Bianca Andreescu. A mixed doubles match will be played if the score is tied after the two singles. In any case, the winner will be a first-time champion, as neither Italy nor Canada has ever reached the final of this exhibition before.
