LONDON – Fourth-ranked Canada has been drawn to play No. 9 Kazakhstan in the Billie Jean King Cup qualifiers this April, Tennis Canada said Monday.
The winning team will advance to the eight-team finals in Shenzhen, China, in September.
Host Kazakhstan will choose the playing surface and venue for the best-of-five April 10-11 tie at a later date.
Two singles matches will be played on the first day. Doubles will kick off play on the second day, followed by two singles matches.
Canada earned a berth in the qualifiers by finishing atop its group in the 2025 playoffs. Canada won the women’s team tournament in 2024.
Canada earned a 3-2 victory over Kazakhstan in their only previous meeting at the 2017 World Group II playoffs in Montreal.
