Billie Jean King Cup: Katie Boulter named in Great Britain team to face Sweden
Written by I Dig SportsBritish number one Katie Boulter has been named in the Great Britain squad to face Sweden in the Billie Jean King Cup play-offs on 11-12 November.
Great Britain need to win in order to advance to the 2024 qualifiers and avoid dropping into regional events.
World number 52 Boulter is joined by Jodie Burrage, Harriet Dart and Heather Watson for the tie in London.
Anne Keothavong's side missed out on a spot in the finals with their 3-1 loss to France in April.
Having reached the semi-finals last year, Britain are aiming to keep alive the possibility of reaching the finals again in 2024 with victory at the Copper Box Arena.
GB captain Keothavong has picked the four highest-ranked singles players available to her.
Keothavong said: "I'm delighted that all our strongest-ranked players have made themselves available.
"We are very excited to have yet another opportunity to play in front of a home crowd, especially at the Copper Box Arena where the fans were so instrumental in helping get us over the line when we last played there a few years ago."
Great Britain last played a Billie Jean King Cup match at the Copper Box in 2019, when they beat Kazakhstan 3-1.
The Billie Jean King Cup was formerly known as the Fed Cup until being renamed in 2020.
