2020_Fed_Cup_Americas_Zone
The Americas Zone is one of three zones of regional competition in the 2020–21 Billie Jean King Cup.
The seven teams were divided into two pools of three and four teams. The two pool winners took part in a play-off to determine the nation advancing to the play-offs. The nations finishing last (in Pool A) and second last (in Pool B) took part in a relegation play-off, with the losing nation relegated to Group II for 2022. The nation finishing last in Pool B was automatically relegated to Group II for 2022.[1]
