The Billie Jean King Cup is the premier international team competition in women's tennis, launched in 1963 as the Federation Cup to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the International Tennis Federation. The competition was initially dominated by Australia, but the United States established itself as a top contender around 1980 and has since won multiple titles. The format of the competition has undergone several changes since its inception, including the introduction of a regional group qualifying format and a home-and-away format, and the prize money has increased significantly, reaching US$12 million in the 2021 edition.learn more on wikipedia
