The US is sending a very strong team to the Billie Jean King Cup team with Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula at the forefront.
World No. 18 Madison Keys, No. 19 Danielle Collins, and doubles world No. 32 Taylor Townsend will join world No. 6 Pegula and no. 8 Gauff on Kathy Rinaldi's team. It's a pretty strong team and it will be special for Gauff who is making her debut at the competition.
Four years after helping the USA win the junior team championship, Gauff is poised to compete in the women's world cup of tennis and she is excited about the prospect as she will be the main player. She and Pegulla will have a tough task because they will most likely play the doubles as well.
Despite having a strong squad, the USA is in a difficult group after being paired with the 11-time champion the Czech Republic and Poland, who are competing in their first Finals. To qualify for the semi-finals, a team must finish first in each of the four groups.
