From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Europe/Africa Zone was one of the three zones of the regional Davis Cup competition in 1997.

In the Europe/Africa Zone there were four different tiers, called groups, in which teams competed against each other to advance to the upper tier. The top two teams in Europe/Africa IV advanced to the Europe/Africa Zone Group III in 1998. All other teams remained in Group IV.
