The 2024 Davis Cup Final 8 kicks off today in Malaga, Spain, running through Nov. 24. Often considered the men’s World Cup of the tennis world, this year’s competition marks the final tournament for 22-time Grand Slam singles champion Rafael Nadal. Retiring on his home turf, Nadal will be teaming up with fellow Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz with hopes of winning one last trophy for their country. Spain hasn’t won the Davis Cup since 2019. But Nadal and Alcaraz aren’t the only major tennis stars on the court this week. Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton, Rajeev Ram and Austin Krajicek are competing for the U.S., and world No. 1 Jannik Sinner leads Italy’s team.
The Davis Cup Final 8 will follow a knockout-style tournament format in the quarterfinals this week. The semis begin on Friday. The final will be held on Sunday, Nov. 24. Are you ready to tune in to the 2024 Davis Cup — and potentially Rafael Nadal’s last match? Here’s what you need to know and how to watch the Davis Cup tennis tournament this week.
