BJK Cup Finals Preview - A new era in Shenzhen begins

Catherine, David and Matt were live on the eve of the 2025 Billie Jean King Cup Finals to preview the event and look back on a weekend of thrilling Davis Cup action.

Part one - BJK Cup Finals Preview. We discuss the new format and new venue in China, the slew of big name withdrawals in the last week, and all four of the quarter-final clashes. Are Italy the favourites? Can USA live up to their potential? Who will play for Great Britain without Emma Raducanu? And where might Spain vs Ukraine be decided?

Part two - Davis Cup Review (43m25s). We discuss the extraordinary success of the away teams in last weekend’s Qualifiers, the European feel to the final eight, and how Spain came back from 0-2 down to beat Denmark without Carlos Alcaraz.

Part three - Tour results and schedule (63m). There’s chat about titles for two teenagers on the WTA Tour - Iva Jovic and Sarah Rakotomanga - as well as a look ahead to a week which includes WTA Seoul 500 and Laver Cup.
