HISTORY OF DAVIS CUP

With more than 100 years of tradition behind it, Davis Cup by BNP Paribas is the premier team competition in tennis, as well as being the largest annual international team competition in sport. The symbol of this prestigious event is the beautiful silver Davis Cup trophy, donated by Harvard student Dwight Filley Davis in 1900. It consists of three pieces, the silver Trophy and two wooden bases.

The Davis Cup weighs 105 kg and is 107 cm in diameter at its widest point. The bowl is engraved with the competitions from 1900-1919, while the tray is engraved with the competitions from 1920-32. The competitions from 1933 through 2002 are engraved on plaques on the top two wooden plinths. In 2002, the trophy gained a new plinth, adding 16 additional plaques and castings and raising the height of the trophy to 110cm.

While only two nations, the United States and the British Isles, participated in the first three competitions, interest grew and by 1913, an additional six nations had joined them. Participation continued to grow steadily, with entries reaching 50 nations in 1969 and topping 100 nations for the first time in 1993. Today, more than 120 nations regularly compete in Davis Cup.

The Davis Cup is a recognised institution in world tennis, as influential today as it was instrumental in the sport’s growth. The simplicity of its unchanged format has provided the framework for one of the most successful and famous competitions in sporting history. Ties consist of five rubbers over three days: two singles on the first day, the doubles rubber on the second and the two reverse singles on the third and final day. All live rubbers are played over the best of five sets with no tiebreak in the final set.

From the beginning, the Davis Cup has always attracted the leading players and today the world’s leading players still answer their nation’s call, just as Fred Perry, Rene Lacoste, Bill Tilden, Donald Budge, Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, John McEnroe, Boris Becker and Pete Sampras did in their heyday.

The World Group is the pinnacle of the competition. Sixteen nations play in a knockout format, leading to the Davis Cup Final in November. The remaining nations compete in Groups I to IV, divided across three regional zones: Americas, Asia/Oceania and Europe/Africa, and aim to win promotion and avoid relegation. The successful nations in Group I of these regional zones join the eight World Group first round losers in the World Group play-offs, with the winners going on to compete in the subsequent year’s World Group while the losers return to zone competition.

Prize money was introduced in the Davis Cup in 1981 when the NEC Corporation became the title sponsor, a position it held for 21 years. In January 2002, BNP Paribas, already an international sponsor, assumed the role of title sponsor. The total compensation to the participating nations for 2012 amounts to around US$14 million.

Davis Cup by BNP Paribas is administered by a Davis Cup Committee, appointed every two years by the Board of Directors of the International Tennis Federation. The Davis Cup Committee consists of a Chairman who is a member of the Board of Directors and four further members. Each member shall be from a different nation that has played in the Davis Cup competition for at least ten years.

To co-ordinate the day to day operations of the competition, the ITF Davis Cup Department carry out the decisions of the Board of Directors and the Davis Cup Committee and administer the arrangements for the competition.

Each participating nation is also asked to appoint a Davis Cup Administrator to liaise with the ITF and be responsible for the local arrangements of all Davis Cup ties in their country.

ITF Davis Cup Nations RankingThe ITF Davis Cup Nations Ranking was launched at the end of 2001. It is published following every World Group round and is the sole criteria for seeding at all levels of the Davis Cup competition.

Points Explanation

Round Points

Bonus Points

The ITF Davis Cup Nations Ranking measures the success of all nations participating in the competition over a four-year period with recent performance weighted more heavily. After each round, points from the same round for three previous years are reduced as per the points table below.

The points stated are awarded to the winning team in that round. Any nation that defeats a higher-ranked nation receives bonus points according to its opponent’s ranking as detailed in the bonus points table below.

Unique to tennis, any Nation that is able to win on the opponent’s home ground in World Group or Zone Groups I and II, receives a 25% bonus for that tie.

Champion Nation’s Players to Win Six or More Singles in a Year 47 players from the champion nation have won six or more singles matches in a single year of Davis Cup competition.

In the years of the Challenge Round (1900-1971) this was only possible if the champion nation had gone through the regional zones on their way to the title. From 1972-1980 all nations reaching the Final Round played through regional zones and from 1981 all nations reaching the World Group Final played four ties.

John McEnroe (1982) is the only player to play and win a maximum eight singles rubbers since the introduction of the World Group. Before that, Donald Budge (1937), Bjorn Borg (1975) and McEnroe (1979) had all played and won the maximum number of singles rubbers for their respective nations. Ken Rosewall (1955) played in the maximum number of singles rubbers for Australia, winning all but one rubber, which was unfinished.

Budge (1937) and McEnroe (1982) hold the further distinction of being the only two players in Davis Cup history to play and win the maximum number of both singles and doubles rubbers in a single year.

Note: in certain cases, when a country ceases to exist and is replaced by a new nation or nations, one of those new nations generally assumes the records of the old nation. In this case players are assumed to have continued to represent the same nation e.g. Boris Becker played for both West Germany and Germany during his Davis Cup career but this counts as representing just one nation given that Germany assumed West Germany’s records upon reunification in 1989.

The following players have appeared in Davis Cup for more than one nation. Player records will contain the combined number of appearances, wins and losses for both nations, while nation records will contain the number of appearances, wins and losses for the nation in question only.
