hopman cup
The Hopman Cup Tournament organisers have confirmed that Britain’s Andy Murray and Laura Robson will form the GB team that will challenge for the trophy in Perth, Australia ahead of the Australian Open.
Murray and Robson will become the first British players to enter the competition since 1992 when Jeremy Bates and Jo Durie represented Great Britain, they were sadly knocked out in the first round.
Other teams so far confirmed for the Hopman Cup are Spain, Russia and the United States, plus the host nation Australia who will have Lleyton Hewitt and Samantha Stosur as their team.
Each match of the tournament features one men’s singles, one women’s singles and a doubles.
Andy Murray is believed to be using the tournament to prepare himself for the Australian Open which takes place later in January. Murray has never fulfilled his potential at the Open and is hoping that by choosing to compete and doing well in Perth, will put him in a better position challenge for the big one.
For a completely relaxing holiday, have you ever considered a cruise holiday?
