After the Davis Cup final Croatia has jumped in the world tennis rankings to third in the world. Croatia were defeated by Argentina in the 2016 Davis Cup Finals in Zagreb last week 3 – 2 but with the points they earned for playing in the finals they have climbed from fifth to third in the ITF Davis Cup rankings.
On the top of the list after winning their first Davis Cup is Argentina and in second place is Great Britain. In fact Argentina leapfrogged Great Britain into first place after their dramatic win last weekend.
Croatia’s next opponents in the 2017 Davis Cup are Spain and this tough match will take place in February next year.
