The upcoming third edition of the United Cup mixed team tournament promises a thrilling clash as its top seeds, the United States, prepare to face neighboring Canada. This event will mark Coco Gauff's debut, with matches scheduled in Sydney and Perth as part of the next season's opening salvo.

The United States will field a formidable team that includes Taylor Fritz and others like Denis Kudla, Robert Galloway, Desirae Krawczyk, and Danielle Collins, who reversed her retirement decision for the 2024 season. The U.S. team finds itself in Group A with Canada and an undecided nation, vying in Perth.

The tournament, comprising six top-ten women players and several elite male counterparts, spans from December 27 to January 5. Notables like Novak Djokovic and Aryna Sabalenka will miss out due to personal choices and sanctions, respectively, leaving champs like Germany's Alexander Zverev to dominate.
