Alcaraz and Spain failed. Hopman Cup Winner Announced
On July 24, the Hopman Cup team tournament concluded.
The Hopman Cup is a mixed doubles (tennis and tennis player from the same country) teams held during the first game week of the season in Perth, Australia, since 1989. The last draw of the tournament was held in 2019. In 2023, the competition took place on the clay court of the Nice Lawn Tennis Club from 19 to 23 July.
Six teams divided into 2 groups participated in the tournament: Switzerland, France and Denmark took part in the first group, and Croatia, Belgium and Spain took part in the second group.
The group winners were Switzerland and Croatia. It was these two teams that faced each other in the final. The win was won by the Croatian team with a score of 2:0.
