The United Cup, the inaugural team event of the new season, has reserved one week and more between December 27, 2024, and January 5, 2025, for players from across the globe to showcase riveting tennis carrying their respective nations’ pride on the hard courts of Perth and Sydney in Australia.

Sixteen out of the total 18 teams have been confirmed for the mixed-team competition carrying a prize-money pool of more than $10 million, with the remaining two to be added to the draw in November.

The teams will be drawn into six groups of three, with Perth and Sydney hosting three groups each at RAC Arena and Ken Rosewall Arena, respectively. Winners of each group will qualify for the last eight, with the best runners-up from each city claiming the remaining two spots. The knockouts will run from January 2-5 in Sydney.
