Niuwe opzet voor Davis Cup Finals 2019

By Chris Dinsdale

November 18, 2019 - November 24, 2019 - In Madrid vindt de eerste editie plaats van de vernieuwde Davis Cup Finals. Het eerste internationale evenement voor mannenteams, gespeeld sinds 1900, vervangt zijn traditionele format met een evenement in World Cup-stijl.

The 2019 Davis Cup will be the 108th edition of the Davis Cup.

The format of the cup has changed dramatically this year. The World Group takes place at one location over a single week, with 18 teams divided into six round-robin groups of three teams each, with the group winners and the two best second-place teams advancing to the quarterfinals.

The teams will each play two singles matches and one doubles match, instead of the previous best-of-5 series, and the matches themselves will drop from best of 5 sets to best of 3.

As the World Group now becomes a single tournament, the event has been renamed as the Davis Cup Finals.
