The 2025 ITF Masters World Team Championships for players aged 60 and over through to 70 and over will take place in Florida from 11-16 May. 

The ITF Masters World Team Championships return to the United States for the first time since 2022 as the 60+, 65+ and 70+ age categories descend upon Palm Beach Gardens.

Held across three venues, the Palm Beach Gardens Tennis & Pickleball Center, The Country Club at Mirasol and BallenIsles Country Club, the 44th edition of the World Team Championships will see a total of 92 teams from 31 nations compete for world titles across six cups.

The week-long team event will be followed by the ITF Masters World Individual Championships (60-70+), taking place from Saturday 17 to Saturday 24 May, also in Palm Beach Gardens. Many of the top players from the team competition will return for a shot at individual glory, making for a thrilling fortnight of world-class tennis in Florida.

In the women’s competition of the World Team Championships, the USA will look to go one better than their silver in 2024 in the Alice Marble Cup (60+), with last year’s champions Germany absent for the 2025 edition. The USA will also be looking to defend their crown in the Kitty Godfree Cup (65+), with Great Britain hoping to avenge their 2024 final defeat.

In the Althea Gibson Cup (70+), Australia are defending champions and return with a strong team to keep up the title push.

On the men’s side, the USA defeated France in the gold medal match of the 2024 Von Cramm Cup (60+) and will look to repeat that feat this year

Australia return to defend their crown in the Britannia Cup (M65), with Masters stalwart Glenn Busby again leading the line. Australia are aiming for four in a row in the M65 competition – can anyone stop them?

France held off the challenge of Canada in the 2024 Jack Crawford Cup (70+), and will try to keep hold of the silverware this year.

Each day there will be a live stream from both the ITF Masters World Team and Individual Championships.
