A total of 52 teams representing 28 countries will take part in the 2015 competition in Antalya.

Great Britain and the USA revealed the players who will represent their respective countries at the International Tennis Federation’s (ITF) flagship event – the BNP Paribas World Team Cup (25-31 May) in Antalya, Turkey.

The back-to-back announcements will lead to anticipating matchups, especially in the quad events, where the US will look to regain the title after falling to Great Britain in a tiebreak in 2014.

The American squad will be led by three-time Paralympic doubles gold medalists David Wagner and Nick Taylor, with Bryan Barten and Greg Hasterok rounding out the foursome.

Jamie Burdekin and Antony Cotterill will return from last year’s event, and will be joined by James Shaw to comprise the British’s quad team.

"Last year's victory over the USA in the deciding doubles of the final will always be one of the most special moments of my career after also being a member of the British team that won the quad title on home soil in Nottingham in 2009," Burdekin said. "We are defending champions and know that retaining the title provides us with a big challenge."

Great Britain won three medals in the 2014 competition in Alphen, the Netherlands, including the gold medal in the quad event, silver in the women’s event and bronze in the men’s event; it was Britain's first podium finish in the men’s competition since 1989.
