The Hopman Cup XXII (also known as the Hyundai Hopman Cup for sponsorship reasons[1]) corresponds to the 22nd edition of the Hopman Cup tournament between nations in men's and women's tennis. The tournament started on 2 January 2010 at the Burswood Dome in Perth, Western Australia.[1]

Eight nations competed. They were formed of one man and one woman from the same nation. The nations were split into two pools of four with the group winners contesting the final.[1]

Slovakia were the defending champions[4] but were not invited to participate in 2010, whilst Kazakhstan qualified for the event by winning the Asian Hopman Cup.[5]

Spain won their third title, defeating Great Britain in the final 2–1.[2]
