LONDON: Seville will host the 2023 Billie Jean King Cup Finals, the International Tennis Federation announced on Wednesday. The showpiece women's team event, featuring 12 nations, will take place from Nov. 7-12.
It is the first time since 2008 that Spain has hosted the finals of the competition, known until 2020 as the Fed Cup. Last season's winners Switzerland will be joined by runners-up Australia and wildcard pick Poland as well as the nine nations that came through the recent qualifiers -- hosts Spain, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Kazakhstan, Slovenia and the United States.
Teams will compete in four round-robin groups of three, with the four group winners progressing to the semi-finals. The draw for the groups takes place on May 24.
Seville will also host the Finals in 2024.
