1982 Davis Cup Americas Zone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Americas Zone was one of the three regional zones of the 1982 Davis Cup.

10 teams entered the Americas Zone in total, split across the North & Central America and the South America Zones. The winner of each sub-zone advanced to the Americas Inter-Zonal Final, with the winner promoted to the following year's World Group.[1]

Paraguay defeated Canada in the Americas Inter-Zonal Final and qualified for the 1983 World Group.[2]
