2014 Davis Cup Europe/Africa Zone Group I

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Europe and Africa Zone is one of the three zones of the regional Davis Cup competition in 2014.

In the Europe and Africa Zone there are four different groups in which teams compete against each other to advance to the next group. Winners in Group I advance to the World Group play-offs, along with losing teams from the World Group first round. Teams who lose their respective ties will compete in the relegation play-offs, with winning teams remaining in Group I, whereas teams who lose their play-offs will be relegated to the Europe/Africa Group II in 2015.

Draw

All seeded teams get a bye into the second round.
