After a four-year hiatus, the Hopman Cup returns in 2025 with a refreshed energy and a world-class lineup, promising to deliver the same charm and competitive spirit that made it one of tennis’s most beloved mixed-team events. Set in the scenic city of Nice, France, the tournament once again pairs male and female players from the same country, emphasizing camaraderie, national pride, and a unique co-ed format rarely seen on the professional circuit.
This year’s edition brings a star-studded cast, including Canadian Grand Slam champion Bianca Andreescu, Greek powerhouse Stefanos Tsitsipas, and rising Italian star Jasmine Paolini. Their presence not only elevates the tournament’s prestige but also adds intrigue to potential matchups across singles and mixed doubles play. For Andreescu, it marks a significant return to international team tennis, while Tsitsipas and Paolini bring momentum from strong showings on the ATP and WTA tours, respectively.
The Hopman Cup’s return signals more than just another tournament; it represents a celebration of the sport’s inclusive spirit and a throwback to a time when mixed doubles stood on a more prominent stage. With its innovative format and a picturesque European backdrop, the 2025 edition could be the spark that reinvigorates mixed team tennis globally.
Fans and players alike will be watching closely as these stars take the court not just for individual glory, but for the pride of their nations. The Hopman Cup is back—and it’s better than ever.
