The Billie Jean King Cup moves to China until 2027

Rumors had been circulating for months, but it is now official that the Billie Jean King Cup will be held in China from 2025 to 2027, specifically in the city of Shenzhen. In recent seasons, the women's team competition had been played in Seville and Málaga, but the future is far from the Andalusia region. "This shows our commitment to bringing the passion and excitement of team tennis between nations to markets around the world," said Billie Jean King herself.

Living up to their status as the favorite team, Lucia Bronzetti has managed to endure to secure the first point of the tie for the Italian team. The world number 78 triumphed in the clash against Viktoria Hruncakova with a scoreline of 6-2 and 6-4 in 1 hour and 23 minutes of play. Despite the Slovak player initially taking the lead with a break in the second set, the Italian turned the outcome around to claim a 1-0 lead in the grand final of the Billie Jean King Cup 2024.

Tough moments to face after losing in the grand final of the Billie Jean King Cup 2024, in which the team from Slovakia stood up in the press conference: "During the match, I felt good, I was not injured," clarified Rebecca Sramkova from the start.

Slovakia to meet Italy in the grand final of the BJKC

The Billie Jean King Cup 2024 already has its finalists, two great teams that will compete for the title tomorrow. The only thing left was to find out which country would face Italy with Jasmine Paolini, and Slovakia will be the chosen one. The Slovaks defeated Great Britain with 2-1, everything had to be decided in the doubles match. Emma Raducanu defeated Viktoria Hruncakova 6-4 6-4, then Slovakia leveled the tie with a victory from Rebecca Sramkova over Katie Boulter (2-6 6-4 6-4). Finally, the Slovaks secured their spot in the grand final after Hruncakova and Mihalikova's victory (6-2 6-2).

Paolini: "I had to find the energy after the defeat"

A very special victory was the one that Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini were sealing in the early hours in the doubles match. The world number four had to make the effort after coming very close to beating Iga Swiatek in singles at the Billie Jean King Cup 2024: "The surface is much faster (than at Roland Garros). I was close to beating her, but she played incredibly. She raised her level in the third set. In the doubles, I had to find the energy after the defeat."
