Antalya, Turkey, 13 May 2024 | Leigh Rogers

Australia’s reputation as one of the world’s leading nations in wheelchair tennis has been enhanced with strong results at the 2024 World Team Cup.

The World Team Cup is the world’s largest annual teams competition on the wheelchair tennis calendar.

All five Australian competitors took home a medal in their respective sections at this year’s event, which was played on clay in the Turkish city of Antalya.

The future looks bright with the Australian junior boys’ team, consisting of 17-year-old Benjamin Wenzel, 17-year-old Yassin Hill and 15-year-old Jin Woodman, finishing runners-up.

This marked the third time in the past five editions that an Australian boys’ team had advanced to the final.

Davidson was a standout performer for the Australian team, winning eight of his 10 matches across the week.
