Davis Cup - They adopted the radical reform of the series

He accepted the radical reform of the Davis Cup at the International Tennis Federation (ITF) on Thursday.

The men's team competition, founded 118 years ago, begins in February next year with 24 players. The 12 semi-finalists are joined by the four semi-finals of the previous season and two free-card bets. The 18 teams will meet in Madrid or Lille between 18 and 24 November, first in six groups of three, followed by the quarterfinals, the semi-finals and the final.

The team matches will consist of two odds and a pair that will take place in one day.

Davis Cup matches have been held so far on four weekends - February, July, September and November.

Behind this new format is the investment company Cosmos, founded by Gerard Pique, a football player from FC Barcelona, ​​which has promised ITF for $ 25 billion for 25 years. Nearly three-quarters of voters have said yes to the proposal presented by David Haggerty, president of the International Federation, on Thursday in Orlando, but there have been opponents, such as the German Alliance.

The best male tennis players in the world often quit their performance at the Davis Cup by referring to the crowded tournament calendar.
