  "account": "Great Britain claimed the World Team Cup for a record fifth time as Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid secured a 2-1 victory over Japan in Florida. Japan had been the defending champions of the wheelchair tennis competition, akin to the Davis Cup and Billie Jean King Cup. In the decisive doubles match, Hewett and Reid triumphed 6-1 6-2 against Tokito Oda and Daisuke Arai. Reid, a member of the winning teams in 2015, 2019, 2023, and 2024, expressed his delight at reclaiming the title. Hewett added that it was their first time reaching the deciding doubles stage, and he was pleased to secure their victory. The team captain, Martyn Whait, and 21-year-old Ben Bartram also contributed to Britain's success earlier in the week, defeating South Korea and the Netherlands.",
