Eight nations are selected annually to compete in the Hopman Cup Tennis in Perth from 29/12/07 to 4/1/08. Each team consists of one male player and one female player. Each match-up between two teams at the championships consists of:

· one women's singles match
· one men's singles match
· one mixed doubles match

Each year the eight competing teams are separated into two groups of four (with two teams being seeded) and face-off against each of the other three teams in their group in a round-robin format. These seedings do not have much of an impact, as all teams meet each other regardless. The top team in each group then meet in a final to decide the champions.
The team lists this year are :

Group A Players Odds to win

Serbia Jelena Jankovic, Novak Djokovic 2.10
France Tatiana Golovin, Arnaud Clement 5.10
Argentina Gisela Dulko, Juan Ignacio Chela 32.00
Chinese Taipei Su-Wei Hsieh, Yen-Hsun Lu 50.00
