The Billie Jean King Cup Finals are set to take place in Málaga, Spain, from November 13 to 20, 2024, where the champion country will be determined among 12 competing nations. Star players such as Iga Swiatek, Jasmine Paolini, Emma Raducanu, Danielle Collins, and Karolina Muchova are among the top names participating.

The matches will follow a best-of-three format, consisting of two singles matches followed by a doubles match if needed. The four top-seeded teams have received direct entry to the quarterfinals, including the defending champions, Canada.

Which Countries Qualified?

The Finals will feature the eight teams that won in the 2024 qualifying rounds, along with the defending champions, Canada; the 2023 runners-up, Italy; the host country, Spain; and a Wild Card entry, this year awarded to the Czech Republic. The Czech team has won the title six times between 2011 and 2018 and reached the semifinals in both 2022 and 2023.

The eight winners of the play-offs held in April include Australia, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and the United States. Australia joins Canada, the Czech Republic, and Italy as seeded teams, debuting later in the week on November 16 and 17.
