Brisbane, QLD, Australia, 14 March 2025 | Tennis Australia

Australian captain Sam Stosur has named the full team for the Billie Jean King Cup by Gainbridge Qualifiers in Brisbane next month.

Maya Joint (Qld), Ajla Tomljanovic (Qld), Ellen Perez (NSW) and Storm Hunter (WA) will join Kimberly Birrell (Qld) to represent Australia at Pat Rafter Arena on 10-12 April 2025.

“I’m extremely excited to announce Kim, Maya, Ajla, Ellen and Storm in the team,” Stosur said.

“Our No.1 Aussie woman Kim has been in great form recently, peaking at a career-high world No.75 after a huge start to 2025.

“Ajla is always an incredibly strong competitor with so much experience at this level, and she always brings a lot to the team.

“It’s also fantastic to see Storm return to the court following a devastating injury setback last year. Together with Ellen, they bring so much to our doubles strength which is a huge asset for the team.”

Eighteen-year-old Joint will make her Billie Jean King Cup debut after serving as the Orange Girl in Australia’s last tie in Malaga. The Queenslander has had an impressive rise through the ranks and will don the green and gold for the first time at an international level.

“Maya has earned this opportunity after a brilliant 12 months, and I have no doubt she will rise to the occasion in her debut,” Stosur continued.

“She’s had some fantastic results and has proved she belongs at this level.”

RANKING MOVERS: Australian women surge into top 100

“I know this group of women will represent Australia with passion and determination. We’re really looking forward to the challenge and having the home crowd behind us in Brisbane.”

Sixteen-year-old Emerson Jones (Qld) will also join the team as the Orange Girl, continuing the tradition of an up-and-coming junior training alongside the team to gain invaluable experience on the world stage.

Stosur also praised the inclusion of Jones as Orange Girl, highlighting the importance of nurturing the next generation.

“Emerson is one of our most exciting young prospects and having her in this environment will be a wonderful opportunity for her development.”
