Three storylines from the 2027 United Cup Entry List

Gauff and Shelton headline Team USA

The United States won the United Cup in 2023 and 2025, and Gauff is back chasing a third title for her country. This time she is joined by Shelton instead of Taylor Fritz. Croatia’s Donna Vekic and Kazakhstan’s Yulia Putintseva could make the women’s singles matches in Group A interesting.

Poland defends its title without Swiatek

Poland returns as the defending champion, but the team looks different. Hubert Hurkacz leads the men, while Maja Chwalinska takes the No. 1 women’s singles spot in place of Iga Swiatek. Switzerland, led by Belinda Bencic, is in the same Perth group and could be a problem.

Group D is wide open in Sydney

Hosts Australia face France and Great Britain in a group with plenty of intrigue. Talia Gibson and Rinky Hijikata will make their United Cup debuts for Australia. Emma Raducanu leads Britain’s women, while Arthur Fils heads France’s men. Every tie could come down to the mixed doubles.
