Not to be outdone

Unbeaten Fernandez

Leylah Annie Fernandez was flawless throughout Canada's 2023 run, finishing with a perfect 8-0 overall record during the Qualifiers and Finals. She played a critical role in her country's victories against powerhouses like Czechia and Italy​.

No. 1 ranking

Following their 2023 triumph, Canada climbed to the top of the Billie Jean King Cup Nations Rankings for the first time, moving from no. 6 before the Finals to claim the No. 1 spot​.

Another landmark moments for women's sports

As part of the ITF's "Advantage All" gender-equality initiative, Canada received a record $2.4 million in prize money for being crowned 2023 champions.
