1981 Davis Cup Americas Zone
The Americas Zone was one of the three regional zones of the 1981 Davis Cup.
8 teams entered the Americas Zone in total, split across the North & Central America and South America Zones. With the introduction of a new tiered format, the previous year's sub-zonal finalists bypassed Zonal competition and qualified directly for the new 16-team World Group. The remaining teams would now compete for a place in the following year's World Group.[1][2] The winner of each sub-zone advanced to the Americas Inter-Zonal Final to compete for one place in next year's World Group.[3]
Chile defeated Colombia in the Americas Inter-Zonal Final and qualified for the 1982 World Group.[4]

gollark: Is it not the code guessing now, or has it been implicitly extended?
gollark: You see precisely what HTech™ wants you to see.
gollark: It's not like there has to be explicit logic for that, HTech™ systems for that couldn't reach me anyway.
gollark: Why?
gollark: Inb4 lyricly requests deadline extension.
