Billie Jean King Cup Final
The Billie Jean King Cup – formerly known as Federation Cup (1963-1995) and Fed Cup (1995-2020) – was launched in 1963 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the International Tennis Federation (ITF). It is now the world’s largest annual international team competition in women’s sport, with 116 nations entered in 2020.
The competition was rebranded in 2020 to align with a global icon who has dedicated her life to fighting injustice, inequality and discrimination in all forms.
A champion on the court and a pioneer off it, King’s values and beliefs epitomise the ethos of a tournament that has evolved to become the largest team competition in women’s sport and now boasts the biggest annual prize fund in women’s team sports - equivalent to that offered to men playing Davis Cup.
