Hopman Cup postponed to 2025 due to Paris Olympic Games

The International Tennis Federation (ITF) and partner Tennium announced on Tuesday that the 2024 Hopman Cup would be postponed to 2025 due to the Olympic Summer Games in Paris.

“With both the Hopman Cup and Olympic Games due to take place in France this year, hitting pause on the Hopman Cup until 2025 is a sensible decision,” said ITF President David Haggerty.

“The players who had committed to this year’s event have been informed and we look forward to seeing them in the Cote d’Azur next year.”

Hopman Cup returned to the tennis calendar in 2023 after a three-year absence, having long served as the sport’s premier mixed-gender event since it first launched in Perth back in 1989. When it was announced in 2022 that the event would come back, it was moved from its spot as a season opener to the summer, where it was held at the Nice Lawn Tennis Club in France.

After a week headlined by Top 10 players like Carlos Alcaraz, Holger Rune, the final saw Croatia, led by Borna Coric and Donna Vekic, win their second Hopman Cup title with a win over Team Switzerland’s Céline Naef and Leandro Riedi.

“We are already looking forward to the 2025 Hopman Cup, and I’m excited to see more of the same thrilling tennis and fantastic crowds we enjoyed in 2023,” said Kristoff Puelinckx, Tennium Founder & CEO.
