The Davis Cup, a men's tennis event between national teams, will be held for the 109th time in season 2020-21. The cup format has been altered for this season. The new structure will result in the formation of a Davis Cup World Group I and World Group II, which will be played on a global scale and will replace the regional Groups I and II.
As a result, the Davis Cup Nations Ranking will no longer be utilized to decide which group a country will compete in. Spain are the defending champion, as well as the previous and current host of the finals. Because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the ITF stated that the 2020 finals will be held from November 22 to November 28, 2021.
Furthermore, 24 World Group I and World Group II ties have been rescheduled for March and September 2021, and the 2020 regional Group III and Group IV tournaments have been rescheduled for March and September 2021. The 18 nations that qualify for the finals will retain their positions for the next year.
