2024 Davis Cup Finals: How to watch, where to stream matches and more
The 2024 Davis Cup Final continues today in Malaga, Spain, running through Nov. 24. Often considered the men’s World Cup of the tennis world, this year’s competition marked the final tournament for 22-time Grand Slam singles champion Rafael Nadal. The Spaniard played his final match yesterday against Botic van de Zandschulp of the Netherlands. Spain is out of the competition along with Canada. Italy vs. Argentina and the U.S. vs. Australia will decide the Davis Cup’s final four on Thursday, Nov. 21.
Nadal wasn’t the only major tennis star on the court this week. Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton, Rajeev Ram and Austin Krajicek are competing for the U.S., and world No. 1 Jannik Sinner leads Italy’s team.
The Davis Cup Final 8 will follow a knockout-style tournament format in the quarterfinals this week. The semis begin on Friday. The final will be held on Sunday, Nov. 24. Are you ready to tune in to the 2024 Davis Cup — and potentially Rafael Nadal’s last match? Here’s what you need to know and how to watch the Davis Cup tennis tournament this week.

What channel is the Davis Cup on?
In the U.S., the 2024 Davis Cup Final 8 will air on the Tennis Channel. Don’t have access to that channel as part of a cable package? No problem. Here are a few ways you can watch the Tennis Channel without cable in 2024.
How to watch the 2024 Davis Cup Finals:
Fubo TV’s Elite tier gives you access to the Tennis Channel, plus ESPN, ESPN2, ABC and 200+ more live channels. At $80 for your first month (then $99.99/month) the live TV streaming service is definitely a pricey option, but still leaves you with major savings compared to a traditional cable package, and is also one of our top picks for watching NFL games this season. So if you’re a sports fan looking for one simple subscription, Fubo might be it for you. Fubo subscribers also get 1000 hours of cloud DVR storage. The platform offers a free trial period, so you can stream the Davis Cup totally free.
When is Rafael Nadal’s last match?
Rafael Nadal has retired after losing Tuesday’s match to Botic van de Zandschulp.
How to watch the Davis Cup for free:
The Tennis Channel is a pricey cable channel that can be hard to get without having to pay for a bunch of other channels you’re less likely to watch. But in some other countries, the Davis Cup Final is airing on more accessible channels. For example, in Australia, Australian matches in the tournament are airing on Channel 9, which has a free streaming service called 9Now also airing match coverage. Don’t currently reside in either of those countries? A VPN could be helpful for you.
ExpressVPN offers “internet without borders,” meaning you can tune into Australian coverage of the Davis Cup Finals this week as opposed to trying to find the Tennis Channel for U.S. coverage of the tennis tournament.
All you’ll need to do is sign up for ExpressVPN, change your server location to Australia, and then find the free livestream for Australia’s matches on 9Now.
ExpressVPN’s added protection, speed and range of location options makes it an excellent choice for first-time VPN users looking to stretch their streaming abilities, plus, it’s Engadget’s top pick for the best streaming VPN. New users can save 49% when they sign up for ExpressVPN’s 12-month subscription. Plus, the service offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, in case you’re nervous about trying a VPN.
