[Bulgaria](/source/Bulgaria_Davis_Cup_team) and [South Vietnam](/source/Vietnam_Davis_Cup_team) made their first appearances in the tournament. Due to the increase in the number of entries, a number of changes were made for this year's tournament. In the Eastern Zone the participating countries were split into two sub-zones, with the winner of each sub-zone playing to determine which team moved to the Inter-Zonal Zone. In the Europe Zone the previous year's semifinalists were no longer granted byes into the second round, however seeding was still in place to ensure that these countries could not meet before the semifinals.[1][2] [Australia](/source/Australia_Davis_Cup_team) defeated [Chile](/source/Chile_Davis_Cup_team) in the America Zone final, the [Philippines](/source/Philippines_Davis_Cup_team) defeated [India](/source/India_Davis_Cup_team) in the Eastern Inter-Zonal final, and [Sweden](/source/Sweden_Davis_Cup_team) defeated [France](/source/France_Davis_Cup_team) in the Europe Zone final. In the Inter-Zonal Zone, Sweden defeated the Philippines in the semifinal, and were then defeated by Australia in the final.
