  • It was Italy's third title in the elite men's team competition following their triumphs in 1976 and last year.

Matteo Berrettini secured a crucial victory for Italy, giving them a 1-0 lead over the Netherlands in the Davis Cup final held in Malaga, Spain. Berrettini, who had been sidelined for much of the year due to injuries, defeated Tallon Griekspoor in a match that showcased his resilience and skill, winning 7-6(5), 6-4. His performance was pivotal, especially after Italy's unexpected journey to the final following a group stage upset by Canada. The match was intense, with Berrettini saving a set point in the first set tiebreak before clinching it, and then breaking Griekspoor's serve in the second set to secure the win. This victory sets the stage for Italy's attempt to win their first Davis Cup title since 1976.
