The 2025 Hopman Cup marks a vibrant return for one of tennis’s most beloved mixed-team competitions. Held from July 16 to 20 in Bari, Italy, this edition brings the event to the Fiera del Levante for the first time, transforming the venue into a tennis village that hosts elite international talent. Six nations are competing: Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Canada, and Croatia.
