Netherlands to play Great Britain in mens final

While aiming to complete a third successive World Team Cup victory in the quad World Group, Netherlands will also bid to achieve the same in the mens World Group.

Sundays final will see third seeds Netherlands face second seeds Great Britain after Maikel Scheffers and Ruben Spaargaren wrapped up a 2-1 Dutch victory over France in the semi-finals. Scheffers and Spaargaren beat Frederic Cattaneo and Stephane Houdet 6-2 6-3 to deny Cattaneo and Houdet as the French duo attempted to follow up their late-night deciding doubles victory over top seeds Japan in their crucial last round-robin pool contest.

Victory for Netherlands throws up the prospect of Sundays final featuring a singles clash between Spaargaren and Alfie Hewett, with world No. 6 Spaargaren the only player to have beaten world No. 1 Hewett in singles competition this year.

Hewett and Gordon Reid won both singles matches in Great Britains semi-final against 2021 and 2022 silver medallists Spain, but not before Hewett saw a healthy lead slip away in his second set tie-break against Martin de la Puente. However, ultimately, De la Puente was unable to force a third set and Hewett finally sealed a 6-4 7-6(8) win that now gives Great Britain the opportunity of playing for a third World Team Cup mens title.

Great Britain to face USA in junior final

In 2021 Netherlands won all three senior World Team Cup titles in the same year for the first time. The only way of improving on that achievement is to complete a four-timer by adding the junior title.

However, attempting that feat will have to wait for another year after USAs Charlie Cooper and Thomas Majetic beat Dutch duo Xavier Donker and Ivar van Rijt 6-2 6-3 in the deciding doubles match of their junior World Group semi-final.

While USA beat Netherlands 2-1, Ruben Harris and 2022 Cruyff Foundation Junior Masters boys singles runner-up and doubles champion Joshua Johns earned Great Britain a 2-0 win over Australia in the other semi-final.

After Great Britain lost the 2019 and 2022 finals to Australian teams it was a welcome victory and the Brits will now play USA in this years final on Sunday.
