From June 9 to 15, 2025, VTF will organize a selection event for 3 places in the Vietnam tennis team for Davis Cup Group III 2025 at AP Sports Stadium (Thao Dien, Thu Duc City, Ho Chi Minh City).
Since yesterday, June 2, VTF has revealed the first two slots, which are also the two official athletes in the Vietnamese tennis team's lineup. They are Nguyen Van Phuong and Vu Ha Minh Duc.
8 players on the list of candidates (not yet announced) will compete to find 3 spots (numbers 3, 4 and 5) in the Vietnamese tennis team for Davis Cup Group III 2025.
Notably, this year Ly Hoang Nam continued to not participate. Last year, the number 1 tennis player of Vietnam was busy participating in the M15 Hong Kong tournament so his absence had a reasonable reason.
This year, Ly Hoang Nam switched to playing pickleball. His tournament schedule is quite busy. Along with the announcement of temporarily retiring from tennis, Ly Hoang Nam officially gave up the Davis Cup.
Vice President and General Secretary of VTF, Mr. Nguyen Hong Son said: "The athletes have announced to stop playing tennis and switch to pickleball, so they will not participate this time. The rest of the VTF will rejuvenate the force so that other athletes have the opportunity to develop their careers."
In addition to Ly Hoang Nam, young tennis player Truong Vinh Hien is also absent. Vinh Hien is focusing on playing pickleball. Last year, he was still with the Vietnamese tennis team to stay in Jordan.
List of 8 players participating in Davis Cup 2025 :
Pham La Hoang Anh, Truong Thanh Minh (Tay Ninh Lighthouse), Dinh Viet Tuan Minh, Tran Quoc Cuong (HCMC), Tu Le Khanh Duy (Xuan Phuc Ninh Binh), Nguyen Dai Khanh (Becamex Binh Duong), Nguyen Minh Phuc (AP), Bui Hoang Anh ( Hanoi ).
