1969 Davis Cup Americas Zone

Main article: 1969 Davis Cup

The Americas Zone was one of the three regional zones of the 1969 Davis Cup.

9 teams entered the Americas Zone: 3 teams competed in the North & Central America Zone, while 6 teams competed in the South America Zone. The winner of each sub-zone would play against each other to determine who moved to the Inter-Zonal Zone to compete against the winners of the Eastern Zone and Europe Zone.[1]

Mexico defeated Australia in the North & Central America Zone final, and Brazil defeated Chile in the South America Zone final.[2][3] In the Americas Inter-Zonal Final, Brazil defeated Mexico and progressed to the Inter-Zonal Zone.[4]
