The tournament commenced on 4 January 2015 at the Perth Arena in Perth, Western Australia.{{cite news|url=https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/sport/tennis/a/24689547/hopman-cup-honour-lures-wa-es-dellacqua/|title=Hopman Cup honour lures WA's Dellacqua|publisher=The West Australian|date=12 August 2014|access-date= 12 August 2014}}

Eight teams competed for the title, with two round robin groups of four, from which the top team of each group advanced to the Final.

France were the 2014 champions. In that tournament's final the French team of Alizé Cornet and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga defeated Poland 2–1, but they failed to defend their title. Agnieszka Radwańska recorded an impressive win over Serena Williams in the final, ultimately carrying the Polish team to their first Hopman Cup title with a 2–1 victory over the United States.{{cite web|url = https://www.bbc.com/sport/0/tennis/30760845|title= Poland beat USA in Perth final|date=10 January 2015|publisher=BBC Sport|access-date=23 January 2015}}{{cite web|url = http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-01-10/radwanska-shocks-williams-in-hopman-cup/6010634|title= Poland wins Hopman Cup as Agnieszka Radwańska and Jerzy Janowicz combine to beat Serena Williams and John Isner in Perth|date=10 January 2015|work=ABC.net|access-date=23 January 2015}}
