Following Great Britain’s historic win against Belgium in the 2015 Davis Cup final, when they hoisted the trophy for the first time in 79 years, the LTA wanted to celebrate this momentous occasion by delivering the trophy tour across the country to thank the tennis community who supported the team on its incredible journey. They also want to inspire a new generation to pick up a racket and get involved in tennis.
