Tennis Australia and the ATP announced last week that a $15 million mixed-sex tournament featuring teams from 18 nations will kick off the 2023 tennis season, replacing the ATP Cup.
It is significant that the new tournament reflects the growing cooperation between the men's and women's tours and the ITF, which have moved to streamline the governance of the game since the Covid crisis disrupted the 2020 season.
"Our focus is always on creating the best possible experiences for our fans and players," said ATP chairman Andrea Gaudenzi in a statement.
"Delivering compelling international team competitions that dovetail with the year-round calendar and continue to innovate is a vital part of that.
"The Davis Cup has an incredibly rich history and we're excited to see this important new alliance drive the event forward from 2023."
