Eighteen-year-old Emma Raducanuová, this year’s sensational grand slam champion of the US Open, who is currently the 21st player in the world, can also oppose Czech tennis players. Former world number four Johanna Konta (73rd) and Heather Watson (74) are also in the 100 WTA rankings.

The Czechs in this year’s new model of the World Team Championship, which played in Prague with twelve teams, ended up in Group D after winning over the Germans and losing to the Swiss. The British lost to the Slovaks in the qualification last year and this year they managed the duel with Mexico in the playoffs.

This will be the first duel with Britain in the women’s tennis competition. The Czechs have won six titles since 2011, the British have reached the finals four times in the past, most recently 40 years ago.

The winner will advance to the finals, which will take place from November 8 to 13 at an as yet unspecified location. “We will start the search right after the end of this year and we will announce the organizers at the beginning of next year,” said David Haggerty, president of the ITF International Tennis Federation.
