Ahead of this week's upcoming Billie Jean King Cup Qualifier in Brisbane, we sat down with Team Australia's Ellen Perez. A member of the Australian team who reached the 2022 Finals, Perez is now one of the nation’s most experienced players. The hard-hitting baseliner recently held a top 10 doubles ranking, has won two ITF singles titles and has reached 10 Grand Slam quarterfinals across the doubles and mixed doubles events. As a member of the WTA Players' Council, Perez is passionate about representing her peers. She tells Viv and Matt why she loves this off-court commitment and the reason Australia is well placed leading into this year's Billie Jean King Cup event.
