United States
United States is on the top with most number of titles as they have made their way at 32 occasions. The team won the first title at the 1st title in the maiden season of Davis Cup in 1900. Since then, United States have dominated this prestigious event. They also hold the record of winning 7 tournaments in a row and achieved this feat between 1920-1926. However, the team couldn’t manage their outstanding performance after 2007 as they have not grabbed any event afterwards.
Australia
Not from the very beginning, but later on Australia has made an epic entry to the Davis Cup history and found back to back wins. In total, they have picked the trophy 28 times. First time, they did the job in 1907 but got the best out of it between 1950 to 1967. However, the graph is also down for Australia in the events’ history from the last few years as they have not won any title since 2003.
France
France is at number 3 with 10 trophies in their records. The team has made such kind of entry into the tournament that no other one can.
