4 Min Read

The Davis Cup 2025 is the 113th edition of the Davis Cup, a tournament between national teams in men’s tennis. It is part of the 2025 ATP Tour calendar.

Under the new format that was introduced, the September stage (Qualifiers second round) featured seven home-or-away ties held over two days. The seven winning teams would join the host nation in the Finals (also known as the Final 8) knock-out stage in November.

The host country has been awarded a spot in the Finals as long as it is ranked in the top 50 nations or one of its players has an individual ranking in the top 10. If these criteria are not met, the last spot in the Finals will be reallocated to a different country as a wild card.

Italy will bid to defend the Davis Cup at the Final 8 tournament in Bologna without the service of its star player Jannik Sinner as they look to complete a hat-trick of titles.

Sinner led Italy to a second consecutive Davis Cup last year in Malaga but the World No 2 has decided to end his season after defending his ATP Finals crown.

Carlos Alcaraz will hope to inspire Spain to victory, although the World No 1 suffered a hamstring injury during his defeat to Sinner at the ATP Finals.
