Emma Raducanu and Leylah Fernandez could meet again if Great Britain face Canada at the Billie Jean King Cup.
Emma Raducanu and Leylah Fernandez could meet again after Great Britain were handed a potential clash with Canada in the Billie Jean King Cup Finals. Raducanu famously defeated Canadian Fernandez in the final of the 2021 US Open and they are in line for a rematch if Britain defeat Germany in their first-round match.
The team's last appearance in the Billie Jean King Cup Finals came in 2022 when they lost to Australia in the quarter-finals. Great Britain and Germany have faced each other six times in the competition, with GB leading the head-to-head 4-2. Their last meeting was in 1985 when Great Britain ran out 3-0 winners thanks to victories from Jo Durie, Annabelle Croft and Anne Hobbs.
