The Americas Zone is one of the three zones of regional Davis Cup competition in 2009.
In the Americas Zone there are four different groups in which teams compete against each other to advance to the next group.
Format
There will be a Round Robin with eight teams. The eight nations will be divided into two pools of four. The top two teams in each pool will advance to the Final Pool of four teams from which the two highest-placed nations are promoted to Americas Group II in 2010. The bottom two teams of each pool of the Round Robin will compete against each other in the Relegation Pool. The two lowest-placed nations are relegated to Americas Group IV in 2010.
