Davis Cup 2026 Qualifiers: Full First Round Schedule

The Davis Cup 2026 is the 114th edition of the tournament which is held between national teams in men’s tennis. It is part of the 2026 ATP Tour calendar. This edition will run from February 6 to November 29, 2026.

The Finals will feature the host nation (Italy) and the seven winners from the Qualifiers second round.

The draw for the first round of Davis Cup 2026 qualifiers has been announced, with a high-profile clash between Great Britain and Norway, scheduled for 5-6 February, set to kick off the tournament featuring the world’s best men’s tennis nations.

Twelve other ties take place on either 6-7 February or 7-8 February.

Twenty-six teams will play for thirteen spots in the Qualifiers second Round, in series decided on a home and away basis.

These twenty-six teams are:

6 teams from the 2025 Finals, excluding the Finals host nation and defending champion Italy and runner-up Spain
7 losing teams from the 2025 Davis Cup Qualifiers second round
13 winning teams from the 2025 World Group I

The 13 winning nations will be joined by last season’s runners-up, Spain, in the second round of qualifiers in September.

Three-time consecutive winners, Italy, will join the seven countries that progress to the final stage, November’s Davis Cup Final 8, in Bologna, Italy.
