Glasgow to host Billie Jean King Cup Finals, Great Britain qualify as hosts

Glasgow has been chosen to stage the 2022 Billie Jean King Cup Finals, which means Great Britain qualify as hosts.

Anne Keothavong's team had initially been set to miss out on the women's World Cup of tennis after defeat by the Czech Republic in a qualifier in April.

They will now play at the 12-team event from 8-13 November at Emirates Arena.

"This is an amazing opportunity to build the profile of women's tennis and focus attention on women's sport," Keothavong said.

"The entire team are thrilled about playing in front of a home crowd and hearing some loud support across the whole week.
