Billie Jean King Cup Finals: 5 stars to watch – ft. Emma Raducanu, Iga Swiatek
Taking place in Malaga, the Billie Jean King Cup Finals see 12 nations battling it out to triumph at the prestigious women’s team event – with Canada looking to defend their title.
With action underway on Wednesday, we highlight five of the biggest names to keep an eye on.
The biggest draw from an international perspective is world No 2 Swiatek, who surprisingly announced last month that she would join up with Team Poland in Malaga.
Five-time major winner Swiatek skipped the Finals in 2023 after a busy season but, having missed the Asian swing, the Pole is mentally and physically fresh enough to compete.
Poland already had a solid team with the likes of Magdalena Frech and Magda Linette, though Swiatek’s presence is a huge boost for captain Dawid Celt – and puts them among the leading title contenders.
