Davis Cup

Annual tennis tournament for men's international teams, first held in 1900 after Dwight Filley Davis (1879–1945) donated the trophy.

The Davis Cup was held on a challenge basis up to 1971. Since then it has been organized on an elimination basis, with countries divided into zonal groups, with a promotion and relegation system.
